Overview

A bench grinder spins abrasive wheels for sharpening chisels and mower blades, shaping metal, and cleaning up rough edges. It is a small, everyday metalworking tool that shines bolted to the corner of a workbench.

Sizing & placement

It is 15 inches wide, 10 inches deep, and 11 inches tall, so it takes very little bench space. In the planner it can sit on a workbench, table, or tool cabinet. Keep the area in front of the wheels clear and away from sawdust.

Where it works

Garages, metal shops, and woodworking benches; sharpening and light grinding.
