GET THE PLANS The plan set is about 30 pages of drawings. It covers every part, exploded views, cut lengths, drill sizes, and hole locations. It also includes fixture maps for building the grinder on a Fireball fixture table. Plans: https://www.fireballtool.com/products/go-kart-grinder-plans Full Amazon parts list (motor, switch, cord, belts, hardware): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/2/d/e/2PACX-1vRZVxDpVsxnEeCWY4UeCvZpDYJIRTDmH4QEfUbFpPd_6TbVfzpzkyytXDbZzNBlX-9uNNBrdMeir9cG/pubhtml Build a compact DIY belt grinder from one 20-ft stick of 2x2 square tubing, go-kart wheels, and about $1,000 in parts. No CNC, plasma table, or waterjet required. Eight years ago, I built the Fireball Tool Go-Kart Grinder, and it's the tool viewers have asked me about the most. In this video I redesign it into a smaller, simpler belt grinder you can build in a home shop. You only need a welder, cutting tools, a drill, squares, and a flat surface. It uses the skinny front wheels from a go-kart, so it runs a narrower belt with a shorter platen. It keeps the original's shifter-lifter belt tensioning and tracking system, and it still has serious grinding power. In this build you'll see: - Building a three-bolt flange and a matching adjustable platen with plug-welded studs - Fabricating the frame on a fixture table using fixture maps, with no tape measure - Weld sequencing to keep a square-tube frame square (More on weld sequencing: https://youtube.com/shorts/yCsSC4tLoP8) - A flexure for belt tracking and a heim joint/turnbuckle for fine adjustment - A pivoting motor mount with a shifter-lifter cam for fast belt changes - Wiring the motor starter and switch box - Why the motor floats: go-kart tires grow at speed (up to ~5,000 SFPM), so a fixed motor would make belt tension and tracking inconsistent - Adding a light-duty shock to tame the startup jump, and how this compares to a VFD soft start - Balancing go-kart wheels, and what happens when the tire runs flat - A 1-minute rod test: 6.5 inches of 1/2" rod ground off with a 36-grit Norton Blaze belt FAQ How much does it cost to build? About $1,000. Nearly every part is on Amazon, except the 2x2 square tubing and the go-kart wheels and tires. You can often find those at swap meets or on Marketplace. What motor does it use? A budget single-phase motor. The same frame comes in 3.5 HP or 5 HP. The 5 HP needs a 30-amp circuit, so check your shop's power before you choose. Do I need a fixture table? No, but it makes alignment much easier. The plans include fixture maps if you have one. Do the tires need air? Jason runs about 1 to 2 psi. In the video, the grinder runs fine even with a completely flat tire.
