Magnetic chuck ideas

I bought a set of magnetic door locks thinking I would use them a lot I really don’t. I found out with the proper cut settings and a soak in vinegar they clean up very easy.

The power unit I bought is a 0 to 36 volt DC power supply off eBay that I bought to anodize titanium when I was make a few rings for Christmas a few years ago.

Most of my cuts clean up pretty easy, and the larger parts are easy to grind. I just use a knotted wire cup and it cleans up nicely. I think the magnets will really help me with smaller parts that tend to shoot of the table, or keep me working in close proximity to my digits.

My goal is to build a down draft grinding platform. If I go down that road, may as well add some magnets.

I sold my surface grinder and kept the 6 by 18 magnet, it works great
