Its the purple finger eater!!!
Just finished this last night. I had been wanting a super grinder and a stand alone polisher so I thought why not build both. The super grinder uses 5 - 4.5" tile blades, the polisher is a piece of 3/4" treated plywood with leather attatched with screws on the edge. Splash guards were made by siliconing together 2 bucket bottoms for each side. The splash guard on the super grinder blocks access a little but I want to use this in the house so I gave up some access for a design that should block spray better. It uses a 3/4" shaft through pillow blocks. The polisher side is threaded to 3/4" NF the Super grinder side is 1/2" NF. I went with purple because I had that color on the shelf. I have to wait till after lunch for the silicon on the super grinder drain hole to dry to be able to try it, though it does run smooth and quiet.
