Collection: Diktator XS Belt Grinder Kits

Beautiful piece. Will use for chef knife hollow grinds

Good heavy gauge tube. will work great with the grinder.

These work extremely well to secure your piece to the surface grinder attachment. These also make the metal dust much easier to clean off after you finish grinding

This was a fun build, though it did require some modifications to the motor bracket to get the motor mounted. The set screw for the drive wheel was missing, but I just ordered some for a few dollars, no big deal. The assembly manual is good overall, though not everything I purchased came with assembly instructions. Steve was super helpful and responsive to my questions, I can recommend Diktator.

Great additions

Your motor face bracket is what I needed to have to install on another grinder that had different hole pattern for motor bolt up I did cut it upto make it fit my grinder as for build quality it was out standing worked perfectly thank you so much for having this individual piece for purchase 😀

I just finished putting mine together,I thought tool rest was small ,I made the tool rest 3 times longer and I can’t wait to get started. I think this going to cut my time down.

My son(16) has been making railroad spike knifes in order to save up for this machine. We paired it with a 1.5hp motor and we couldn’t be happier! This thing is awesome. I believe this will change his knife making game! It’s so cool! Build like a brick shit house!

Nicely machined set of wheels with 3 bearings. Way better than the 2 bearing types. The center races don't get loaded against the bearings when bolting to the D-plate and I appreciate the included spacers.

Used the device for the first time and it worked perfectly. Very pleased with the result of the grind on the blade.

Excellent workmanship. High quality. It is another of several add in’s that I have gotten for my Diktator grinder.

I’m fairly new to knife making and I’m impressed with the Max grinder. Quality parts and great detailed instructions. My favorite function is the ability to tilt on side with little effort. I’m very happy with this grinder.

I thought id share some photos of my Bandit I built last year.

I started making knives a few years ago and bought my grinder. For my first grinder, it's great. The first thing I did was to round the back of the tool rest so I can swing it out of the way without removing it all the time. I put a carriage bolt with a wing nut (wing nut on top) to make it a lot easier to deal with. After a LOT of hours of use I needed to replace the motor. I made the choice to go to a variable speed motor - I wish I would have spent the coupe of extra dollars right out of the gate for that option. Now I have eliminated hours of hand work. Since the beginning I've upgraded my forge, anvil, hammers, and other things but I still have my Mini Diktator.

The arm fits well, I bought my grinder over a year ago and needed another arm.
