Material:

Flat stock 2"

Round Bar dia. 12mm or 1/2"

Nut or better a coupler Nut

Screw quarter 20 by 1 1/2"

Tools:

Angle Grinder

Welder of some sort

Drill or Drillpress

Beltsander (optional)

Square Sharpie

Safety Gear

I cut the Round Bar to 20 cm that will give me more than enough reach for my uses.

After that I cut a Square out of the 2" Flat stock and made a Circle out of it.

All the cutting was done with a 4 1/2" Angle Grinder

I used a 12 mm Drill to drill away the Threads in the Nut.

I used a Cordless Drill but a Corded one or a Drill press would work as well

This hole gets threaded in the next Step to accept the Screw that holds the Fence ro the Bar

The hole gets Threaded with the right Tap thats fits your Screw

I welded the Nut on the Plate with my crappy Arc welder. It worked good enough for this after that I ground the weld to make it look at least a Little bit better

Now I drilled a Hole in the End of the Bar thet will hold a Screw that will hold down the Little Round Blade

The hole in the End of the Bar gets threaded.

Sorry I forgot the Picture but ist pretty self explanatory.

Now I cut out a Little Disc out of a Piece of old Sawblade and I drilled out the Middle.

Than I put on the shaft and out the Shaft in my Drill and sharbend the edge on my Angle Grinder.

Finally I just put it all together and Screwed the Cutter on the Top.

This is my first Instructable so its defenitly not perfect.
