A Ryobi 6" Bench Grinder

Currently has the fine wheel on the left, and a wire wheel on the right.

Works well, but motor is a little slow to start up. Give it a good 15-30 seconds before grinding.

Notes:
  *DO NOT USE THE GRINDING STONES ON ALUMINUM. IRON/STEEL ONLY. USE THE WIRE WHEEL ON ALUMINUM. DON'T BE THAT PERSON. ALUMINUM GUMS UP GRINDING STONES AND THEY HAVE TO BE RE-DRESSED.
  *Don't use the thicker Harbor Freight wire wheel. It doesn't spin very well in the grinder. Use the Avanti wire wheel (currently installed)

To-Do List
  * Mount it to a bench or moveable stand
