The Revolution 2x72 was designed with the home builder in mind.

The novice fabricator can put this together and have a versatile, feature-rich, tilting 2x72 Belt Grinder that would cost thousands of dollars if it were manufactured.

Get the Ultimate Bundle Kit and see how you can Revolutionize your home workshop with one of the most important tools of the 21st century. Also, you do not need any special work table for this, it will bolt down to any flat work surface and tilt with ease. 

The process of designing and building this grinder is a series on YouTube. For more details and a breakdown of the machine, Click here to watch the series.

      These parts will ship from our Florida warehouse. The steel is made in the U.S.A. and is laser-cut by a shop in Florida.

      I purchased the Ultimate Bundle with the plans and all the laser cut parts. That is definitely the way to go!

      I love the grinder. It went together like a dream and works perfectly. The tracking is super responsive.

      Building the HM grinder was a most enjoyable experience. This is now my favorite tool. Thanks Brian!

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Not yet. But we are in the process of working out ways to supply more of the components needed to finish the build.

      Stay tuned!

      No. We now grind the weld seams out of the tube steel for every kit, for the receivers that require telescoping pieces to fit into them.

      YES! The Revolution is a DIY build but now we pre-fabricate the tracking hinge and drill, tap, & cut all tube steel.

      Not at all. We have had many Revolution builders learn to weld just for this project! And if you don't have a welder, maybe you have a friend who welds and owes you a favor...?  :)

      Set aside 4-6 hours for the build.
