This is my tiny bench grinder, with a Dremel attachment (removable). This thing is worth its weight in gold. Grinds, buffs, and does everything the Dremel will do, better. $37.99 Harbor Freight.
Compare to a full-sized grinder. This is also very useful.
I have several jigs I made to fit my full-sized DeWalt router. That machine is a beast for building furniture and stuff, but it is clumsy overkill for routing neck pockets and truss rods. So I got the idea to make a base plate that will adapt the little router to the jigs I made. Simple - just a 6" square; there it is on the left. The material is a piece of 1/4" phenolic that I had laying around for years. Phenolic resin is a plastic that is so hard and stiff it is more like metal. It is perfect for router bases and other fixtures, but somewhat hard to work. To drill the big hole in the center, I had to shift the drill press to its lowest gear, and cool the bit with water.
