if you get that belt grinder that will make a smashing HSS tool grinding tool as well. 

I picked up on your other thread about lack of tooling... a very simple made jig for the belt grinder will grind up your tooling looking like it just got finished on a surface grinder. 

Google and Youtube belt sanders and research what people have made and what they do with them pay attention to some designs that allows you to change the grinding position to make them more flexible. 

Im gathering materials right now for which is in essence a miniature belt grinder made with a 4'' Metabo angle grinder its going to be a Linisher for a Flat bed truck im building.. Belt sanders are the Tits..

Thanks Anthony, I was hoping my belt sander would be my do all grinding machine, so what your saying is very reassuring. The one I've just purchased is a used demo machine at a really great price and it looks like the 'Dogs Bollocks.' (my favourite saying from the old country)

I will post a picture and a quick review when it comes which should be by the end of the week, fingers crossed.

Cheers
