Yes, a tea maker would be a useful accessory and don't call me Shirley!

From the movie Airplane (1980), sorry I couldn't help myself - I'm off to the naughty step now

Purchase a "Muffin Monster" (or get one donated). Then throw various stuff into it, and see all the things it can grind, versus some that it can't. A few spare gearboxes and motors might also be useful. (Fish waste voice of experience )

I like many projects that involve a grinder.

Until you get a little more specific, you will get comments like this. Until you can demonstrate that you can think for yourself....

Why not come up with 1,001 uses for a multi purpose grinder.

Can you please provide much more information, there just isn't enough to supply more than a guess. Are you trying to design a multipurpose grinding disc?

Please provide more information.

As no details are provided,I assume the requirement for grinding solid material.

I suggest a turret type arrangement ,with various grinding attachment fitted to each arm.(Similar to turret on lathe machine)This can be made to work in various angles.

The design can further be developed based on more input.

Homework alert!

You should grind your nails, but not your teeth.

Sharpen ax, sharpen lawnmower blade, square off old screwdriver.

That should be enough to get an A.

Re: Suggest Project on Multi Purpose Grinder

I respectfully disagree. A well put question will usually gets a well put answer here at CR4. There have been times that a jargon embedded, well put question has had to endure initial ludicrous answers as jargon either gets explained or those familiar with the jargon finally speak up. This question follows a similar pattern of a poorly put question gets poor answers.

".....can any one please suggest me ideas for doing project on multi purpose grinder ..."

Well to be grammatically accurate, the answer is "Yes, anyone can suggest a project for a multi-purpose grinder." It begs the unspoken question though of why should anyone make a specific suggestion?

But fear not, I do have a challenging project proposal for the OP. Take a multi-axis CNC machine, http://www.hurco.com/USA/Products/Machining_Centers/5-Axis/Pages/default.aspx?gclid=COazwZKE7qoCFUXf4AodzUYBOQ, figure out if and how this can be converted into an automatic manicure station. This would be a truly impressive project to tackle that will speak volumes about the one doing the project. Don't forget to include upgrade costs along with potential liability.

You right, there are a lot of good answers to be found here on CR4. And I didn't mean to offend anyone on CR4. What I was trying to impress upon the OP is, if the question is well put, then you will get some "well framed answers" and that's all.

The OP still hasn't told us what kind of Multi-Purpose Grinder they are using or wanting to use, is it a two spindle bench grinder, a milling machine, a die grinder, dremel drill or a food processor as some have suggested. All to often questions are asked with blanks sections, leaving people to clairvoyance or speculate as to what they trying to ask. I know this is a World Wide forum and English to some, isn't their native tongue and we have to except that.

In that case, do a bit of googling and you can find the videos of the food processor that's so good it reduces mobile phones and the like to small bits. I can't remember the name, but it was a US show.

For food processing: grinding, chopping, slicing, dicing, liquidising, mixing, kneading....not much else you can do with food stuffs in preparation!
