How to simply lock a hand power tool

There is a great need to fix the grinder in a stationary state. Say, sharpen the drill if there is no stationary emery on hand. I will show how to make an incredibly simple stand on which it will be possible to fix not only the grinder, but also other tools, such as a drill, dremel, building hair dryer, etc.

Making a stand for a power tool


We cut a rectangular piece of chipboard larger than your tool.

All examples are on the face. The stand is very simple and very comfortable. With a slight vibration, it will not roll over.
Also, before work, it is necessary to clamp the trigger or the tool switch with a plastic clamp or in another way. When working with the tool in this position, be extremely vigilant. I recommend making a foot pedal button so that when you press on it with your foot, the tool turns on.

    And, ignoring the dowel, this cunning design can not be screwed into a tree? :)

    Did similar.
    The clamps lack strength. At work
    the instrument vibrates violently. Both due to the softness of the gaskets and the fragility of the supports.
