If you have a bad back; try this tool arm cozy.

I was looking for a place to keep the tool arms handy to the grinder as well as have them in a position where I did not have to over extend my reach. Bad back:helpsmilie:

I had some 3 inch box along with 2 1/2 inch angle. I stuck the tool bar in the 3 inch, positioned it to were it worked best, marked a line parallel with the table top along the side of the 3 inch box and cut it on the band saw. Then a little welding and its finished.
They are bolted to the table top using 5/16th bolts.

I didn't care about making them pretty, that's obvious, just wanted them to function well. Now I can switch tool arms without throwing my back out.

Neat. My Radius Master came with jig slots on the stand - except it doesn't have one for the hollow grinding jig :( - I'm still working on a good solution for that one
