    Default Repurposing broken garden water pump to portable disc sander

    I found this half of the water pump from a scrapyard.
    I repurposed it to disc sander.

    Video is mostly about how i made an adapter to pump axle, that allows one to use angle grinder pads with it.

    Thank you very much.

    Here its very common that one forgets garden pump outsides, without emptying it. And when water inside it freezes during winter, it cracks.

    Now, there's atleast one easy way to repurpose it.
