C Craft, I purchased the aluminum from Midwest Steel & Aluminum. It cost $215 for the aluminum (plus shipping). Aluminum cuts easily on a table saw, so I combined pieces of the same thicknesses to cut cost as much as possible.

Yeah, but if you use a 12X36 base instead of 12X24, it can be made into a 2X72 grinder. Beaumont sells a 12" extension to convert the 2X48 into a 2X72.

C Craft, the same guy that posted the build of the vertical grinder also did a build of a horizontal one as well. It seems to be an improvement of KMG's. I plan on building this one as well. I will share the VFD. https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/2-x-48-horizontal-belt-grinder-build.1094914/

I just finished building this one. It was a fun build and is an excellent machine. Well designed, I think. http://www.tradgang.com/tgsmf/index.php?topic=161547.0
