Recycled Roller Stand
When my
home-exercise treadmill finally died, I took it apart so that it would be
easier to move and so that I could dispose of it with my household garbage.
When I got to the wide roller for the main belt, though, I couldn’t bear to
toss it, even though I didn’t have any particular use in mind. Then one day I
needed an out feed roller for my table saw.
As shown in the
drawing at right, I built a sawhorse as a support stand. Something smaller
would have worked, but I can always use an extra sawhorse. The roller is
mounted on a 1x upright that rides in a pair of slots cut in the sawhorse’s top
and shelf. A homemade clamp built with T-nuts and a carriage bolt holds the
roller at whatever height I need.
