Thanks for realizing me that throwing the old HDD in trash was a better choice..
it's not a better choice I never throw them away I use the platters for coffee cup coasters and the shells for putting screws in when i pull apart electronics it's also good when you are soldering and you can solder over the hard drive enclosure so that your solder doesn't fall on your bench, but instead in your HDD Housing
@@martinkuliza I do the same - I have so many discs now I use as coasters - the screws are useful too
@@chrisgraver2112 yeah they come in hand, so do the magnets of course and if you know how.. ON CERTAIN BOARDS you can use donor parts to repair other hard drives
@@martinkuliza Ever heard of real coasters and plastic boxes for screws?
I pull the magnets and throw the rest away
That’ll teach me to watch videos when I don’t know what’s being made. Next try making a hard drive from an old knife sharpener…?
Ha! Thank you for the chuckle!
You do what you can you "privileged" man, appreciate his efforts if you can.
Your justification for crying "privileged" is what? ?.?🤔?.?
Time and $ spent on parts = time and $ spent on purchasing 1/4” grinder from Harbor Freight Tools store.
@@johnlauchner7383 -- I think he does it just for the fun of it. Some dudes just like to roll their own.
It's a good demonstration of how to access the functionality of the small high-RPM motor present in hard drives. Not sure a grinder would be the first application I'd apply this to but it's food for thought. Your patience with the hacksaw is impressive.
Am I supposed to be impressed?
@@chasimonoh I barely have the patience to hacksaw through a nail before I say screw it and grab the Dremel, so I'm impressed that anyone would take the time to hacksaw through the entire width of a hard drive case. That's bananas.
@@houseofdiy1030 there are a few good videos on youtube about angle grinder safety, some of which are applicable here. A HDD motor is capable of running at 5,400 RPM. If that disc should break up at that speed, especially with abrasive material on its surface, it's going to cause injuries. This project is a really, really bad idea. I agree with you though that it's good to show how the motor can be used, but I'd agree this project is a bad idea. Especially given that it's cheap enough to buy a proper grinder.
@@derekstuart5234 "cheap enough to buy a proper grinder" is quite relative term of comparison. Consider India has over 1 billion population, the vast majority living on around $2/day. There could be over 1 billion discarded hard drives circulating in the world.
@@gregrice3867 I suggest looking a bit more into angle grinder safety videos. You might learn something. These are not toys and a fast rotating disc can quite easily shatter- trust me, it hurts.
Truly Amazing, incredible, really. That's the most stupendous thing I've ever seen. I have to go sit down.
😆😂
😂😂😂thank god i saw ur comment b4 watching this video
😂😂
I followed your video instructions in detail all the way down to color code on wires. Couldn't be happier with result. I used a fine grit sandpaper works well for sharpening fish hooks and hooks on lures. Thank you for the instructional video
Why, why do I always fall for these? Note to self: Always read comments 1st
10 seconds, see your comment....bailing. Thank you!
fifteen bloody minutes of my life lost forever
This is a life lesson in so many ways. Time management. Cost benefit. Clickbait awareness. Bait n switch. Algorithm resistance. Sunk cost falacy and more. Life changing. I will never ever click anything again ever.
15 min I'll never get back. Why in the hell would I go through all that when I can go to harbor freight and get a 20 dollar angle grinder that works much better
Watching it from beginning to the end without skipping, observing all the details with all the screws et al was an accepted challenge for me.
😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
That’s 15 minutes I’ll never get back. Stick that disk on a drill.... same thing, more power
How strong is the motor in a harddisk? The only thing I really know about them, is that they're very strong, compact, precise and silent. But aren't you doing something horribly wrong when you need that kind of extreme power in a sanding disk anyway? I think I would prefer the low noise and high precision control, which is why I sometimes use a dremel instead of a hand drill. But I guess to each their own.
in life there is very much we need to learn for the advancement of our life on this planet earth that we love #riskalive
@@jeschinstad No. A hard drive motor runs very stable and true. The fact that he uses 100 grit sandpaper is probably a cost issue. For a person working with lapidary and fine polishing, this is a brilliant idea. Just replace the sandpaper with a 1200 grit diamond lap or a tin polishing wheel.
Dear god, why didn't I just read the comments FIRST before wasting my time
@@mycrazygrandpa yes why didn't you. Now you've made a fool of yourself. The idea of using a HD motor for a grinder is fine. You should just use it for fine work with a diamond wheel or something like that. Not for something you'd be better of using a dremel or an angle grinder.
I was taught years ago that the way to put a new end (tip) on a screwdriver was to put the screwdriver in a vice with the tip barely extending. With a good file run the file across the tip of the blade to make a new tip end. Next put the screwdriver in the vice where you can file a new flat side on the screwdriver and then do the other side the same way.
It's cheaper to buy new screwdriver
Gotta be cheaper than buying a new screwdriver if no-one is charging for labour.
I take care of my tools worth the effort..I have old axe / hammer I've cut an inch off the blade resharpening it but it will out last me ..
Hilarious, I love it. It's a shankmaster 10,000 thumbs up 😂
As danishdart mentioned below, this is better suited for fine polishing and lapidary work than as a course sanding wheel. The HDD platter is very flat which should make it a good surface for final polishing small chisels and such with 1,000 to 6,000 grit papers, as long as not too much pressure is applied. Skip the CA glue step so paper can be changed more easily.
Well, the "flatness" of the basic disk is compromised by the stuff you attach to it. Were one to find some abrasive stuff to the Al disk you would have a flat grinding surface (except for the flexibility!)
A better idea would be to put velcro instead of double sided tape. Many sanding discs come with velcro hooks on them
@@Joxman2k Others are self adhesive, which might be another alternative. I have some of them but they are fine grit so would be more suitable for modelling work or polishing.
@@BoingBB Velcro could still work if you put the self adhesive ones onto a CD disk, or similar flat plastic, and put the mate to the velcro on the plastic disk :)
@@Joxman2k Yes I suppose that would work too.
Most fun is just collecting the actuator magnets.
Best fridge magnets ever.
Glad I skip to the end, I could use that hdd as a sanding block way more better use of time. LOL
Thanks
he had a good time though, no doubt about that. I can go to a hardware shop around the corner..But hey, he didn't go out during pandemi lockdown for sure.. He saved himself didn't he?
Personally, I prefer the traditional whetstone approach but I appreciate curious minds.
🤣 good joke and true
I was skeptical but I'm actually impressed with how much torque this thing can put.
7200 rpm
@@apoymc The rpm is not the torque though.
It has no torque. Edited footage took 10 minutes of scratching down to about 10 seconds
There are some nice permanent magnets inside an HDD. And, I have once used a hard drive motor as a bearing for a DIY hamster wheel. The wheels that you can buy off the shelf are typically creaking and rattling. I used an appropriate cylindrical plastic continer for the wheel and fitted one HDD platter centered to the container's bottom to make the plastic bottom stiffer (as a reinforcement). During the nights, all I can hear is the little paws tapping on plastic, rather than something rattling and shaking the whole cage.
Very easy. I'll do it tomorrow in my spare time!
So this is what a waste of time looks like 😂
That was great! 🤣👍

@@hughjanus2465 that was scary for me too. but he is not a time waster. On the opposite: he is using his time to create something for himself. NOT FOR ME. I respect him for having a good idea
Useful idea. I can say, it is a prototype - well, I guess I will build a multi-one from your project. Thanks bro. Great idea!
What would really get tongues wagging is a frame over that with precision ways and a linear actuator. And much more fine-grit sandpaper. High-precision tabletop surface grinder, for cheap. Might need a ring of precision BB's under the disk/platen for stability, but one-half a ball-bearing race could do it, if a large diameter can be found with small, low-inertia bb's. High-precision surface grinders don't use much power b/c they remove microscopic amounts of metal.
They really need a Harbor Freight where ever hes from!
@@bTusler who do you think made your $16.99 grinder from harbor freight?! lol
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Seriously!
That’s about what he probably spent $$$ on the electrical components to build that little sanding wheel 😭😭😭 not to mention the time spent probably would have been about the same to run down to the local Harbor Freight to buy one 🤣🤣🤣

Nota Bene: the title does NOT say anything like 'EASY' or 'DIY'
Very ingenious! Every shop can use a sander/grinder! Thank You!
Just use dc motor and a cheap potentiometer and a cd
That was cool, great repurpose project! I thought for sure you were going for an object carousel for 3d phoiogeommetry, since it in that search category for me. Surprise, surprise. Although once I saw the potentiometer I was like, "yeah, no, that would be a bit much." LOL.
Amazing 😃 I didn't read the description so I watched in amazement what this is going to be.... So now I know! Tx! One thing I will definitely remember is that these hard drives have a powerful motor to do all kinds of things with. I have a whole bunch of those from my Raid system. So now I know I have all these motors in there to do stuff with!
These motors are fast, not powerful. The slightest bit of drag almost kills the RPM. There's a reason real shop grinders are 1/4 horsepower or more.
@@randallsemrau7845 Ok tx! 😃 Now I know!
I use my old hard disks as sledge hammer testers. Works great!!!
LOL
Thanks. I bought brushless motor drivers a time ago. but I thought thy were dont working with HDD motors. After Seeing this vdo, I tried them. Working Perfectly. thanks again
in life there is very much we need to learn for the advancement of our life on this planet earth that we love #riskalive
Thanks for the video. It was fun guessing what you were building with it. I'm impressed by both the patience and the above average DIY knowledge it took to make this project regardless of its usefulness that others were critical of. To me it opens up countless uses for old hard drives even if one only uses the motor for perhaps a homemade Dremel tool, tattoo machine or something. I opened my first hard drive from about 1986-7 to see what was inside and decided to save it and make a wall clock with it which I never did, but I still have the old Seagate ST-238 5 1/4 inch 30 megabyte drive in a box somewhere, though I discarded the top of it all the electronics are fully intact and it was working perfectly prior to opening. This video has compelled me to dig it out of the garage soon and make some use of it.
Had the same idea about a clock and did the same thing about that time :) Had about 8 plates that I didn't do a thing with ;)
Please don't encourage the sort of video that makes us guess what they are making. Good makers don't need to do this.
I also remember opening up a hard drive around that era, although I was born in '88, so the year was probably around 95. but I still have the shiny metal platters. it's cool knowing other people had similar experience
This is a great example of imagining how something discarded could be made into something useful if resurrected. I can imagine me as a 12 year old, carefully following his every step. And the music ain't bad either. Thanks for the video my friend.
I'm about to show my 12 year old
No, the "music" is shite.
I must admit I am quite impressed. It seems a lot of work. I normally use my hobby tool, but yes it could be useful. An Angle grinder is too much for somekinds of grinding.
5 minutes of my life YOU owe me back. (5 minutes was all I could take)
I know these frauds narcissists, so I used Fast Forward :)
@@traweler155 You're sneaky. I wouldn't let you near my videos.
I bailed down to the comments at 2:58...
I kept hitting the scroll bar just to catch important spots. However there were only about 3. Still took 5 minutes I wish I could get back.
Fast Forward! You should know by now ;) I only watched it for 3 mins, with constant FF... to get enough to know what was happening so the end made sense... Here you can my 2 mins as your change! ;)
Here's the last thing I like to hear when disposing of an old hard drive: "PULL!"
I like it!
Mine tend to develop permanent "error .223" or "error "45 ACP"
Not to undervalue the joy of a DIY project, or your clever ingenuity, but grinders are pretty inexpensive. ;-)
I got to Agree. Not to mention, he probably would end up spending the same amount on the extra circuit board, switches and stuff that would have paid for a decent grinder. Plus he's got to have a fair amount of knowledge concerning how to "Wire" that contraption....lol. One things for sure, he's definitely got a lot of extra time on his hands....
@@joeleyendecker5346 o
OMG I have laughed so hard with some of the comments... Good stuff. And although the surprise with the screwdriver at the end also made me laugh.

Thank you for showing us this project.

Only 1:40 of mine Thanks!
That's why I went straight to comments.
I like watching people who are innovative like this.
Nice job! Even if one is not interested in making something out of an old HD, just taking it apart - there's a crap ton of screws that can be reused for whatever, and can never have enough screws in the bucket o' bolts stash
Amazing what you can do with broken parts, lots of time, and money to burn. If you really, REALLY needed a mini-grinder.....
Now if you could turn an angle grinder into a massive drive , now that would be impressive
You've spent an inordinate amount of time making something that's completely useless. However this is what artists do. Ergo, you are an artist and an exceptionally interesting one at that!
Constructional madness! Sometimes some ideas are just not worth pursuing. THIS would be one of them.
Hi, don't worry about people who do not appreciate your effort and work, if not people like you , that have creativity, we would still use candles if Thomas Edison gave up after few failures, it is your idea and your time, and creating something on your own is better than buying everything. Thank
Pls someone call the Nobel committe. He has just invented the sanding disk!
He didn't invent anything. He just made a grinding machine from an old HDD. It's fun and nerdy. Not because he had to, but because he can!
A harddisk electric motor doesn't have enough torque to use to this... It's ok for any small work, but not the best choice.
😂😥😉
There's nothing like a good powerful grinder and this is nothing like a good powerful grinder.
Cool idea! Would be a handy little device, especially for model work. The motor looks strong enough to handle it too. As a bonus, it should run direct from a small 12 volt, off grid solar system! 😊
I like you. Good comment buddy. Enjoy your life.
If you need to run off-grid, you might have bigger problems than sanding a screwdriver :P Actually that would be good in a hobby shed or out at the park doing crafts with the kids :) It would be great for popsicle sticks etc :)
@@Joxman2k funny, you're talking to someone who's been living off grid for the last 5 years.. 🤣.. It's why I appreciated this for what it is. It is a handy little tool, useful for small model work and with hobby work. Sometimes, even a small device like is better than sanding/working by hand. Of course, it goes without saying that a good set of cordless power tools goes a long way, whether you're off grid or on grid. Sometimes, you still need the bruteforce of 240 volts(or 120 if that's your flavour).. and that's where off grid inverters come in! 😉.. (although mines rarely use for anything beyond powering/charging a laptop and a running small washing machine and charging the odd cordless tool battery)..
@@gooseknack Ya more I think about it the better it would be for off-grid use. You wouldnt eat into stored electricity used for other things, and it is small and handy :) Nothing really beats hunting squirrels with a Sherman Tank though :P sometimes bigger is better :)
Been using redundant HDDs for more than 25 yrs to make precision abrading tools for production of small parts. You can use the existing Hdd pcb and power from any pc psu. Hdd tool can be used fixed or hand held, with or without platters and using emery papers, between 120 grit up to 1000 grit. Can also use with customised fences. Brilliant at finishing stainless steel parts. Bonus = free magnets.
It's a shame there's nothing about it on your channel.
@@DownhillAllTheWay Video up FYI
@@peterwatt2930 Thanks Peter. I think my daughter, who makes jewellery, would find a burnishing tool like this useful. I'll run it by her and see what she thinks.
Indeed, it has a lot of potential applications. Perhaps a better result can be obtained by imbedding the abrasive material into the Al disk.
@@GilmerJohn Hi John Thak you for the comment. Embedding materials on to the platter is definitely outside my skills. 3M W&D carborundum papers (or sim) have an even grit surface and can be cut and replaced easily. These can be used with or without the disk platter. Further when no platter is used abrasive paper straightens due to centrifugal force but is conformable. Nice for finishing intricate parts. Peter

Thank you for sharing sir new supporters here
When I watch makers on here use cutting tools it always amazes me that they retain full sets of fingers.
@ Andrew Hardman.A carpenter told me when I was a child after having asked him if he was not afraid using all those ultra sharp tools that he had,that more accidents are caused in the workshop due to blunt tools than sharp ones.I have always lived by that rule ever since.
This is so cool. I spent all weekend making this, then dropped the thing on the floor and the glass disk shattered. It's ok, the tape kinda still holds it together.
use an old dvd or cd
So you’ve got the glass disk, and here I thought they only came in aluminum disks.
@@EMPIREJIN I think I heard the glass was in the laptop (2.5") drives. But that may be out-of-date.
@@chaos.corner oh I c, I haven’t got any pleasure with an hdd off a laptop yet
Toss that thing. You do not want that disc spinning at (whatever the RPM is) and have it start falling apart. The entire project is like building a Russian Roulette angle grinder.
This is the perfect example of reinventing a wheel.
Impressive! I’ve taken apart several hard drives before, for use as galvanometers and surface mirrors, but I never thought of this. Interesting that the motor is strong enough! I just found this channel and I’m going to subscribe. :)
It isn't. Better just use an angle grinder.

@@durandalgmx7633 A DIY solution is rarely the best fit for any purpose. The idea is pretty good though and the exercise is interesting.
@@jefftanilon6357 why the caps why yell ,do you understand internet etiquette... Also dude really the parts involved in this project are about the same cost as a cheap Chinese made grinder from some jumbo mega store and still it would be a heck of alot safer than this thing. It's a great demonstration of the motors strength etc but it's in no way a good idea in fact it's straight dangerous AF.
While some may be concerned about purchasing a grinder of this sort for a small amount of money, this is not the lesson. Often times one has a situation of several items rendered otherwise useless, however, by adapting various components from various other useless devices one creates a practical solution. Additionally, if one happens to live in a remote place, where shopping and delivery is not an option. The lesson interpretation is likely about another method of adapting to the environment or situation at hand...Just an alternative view. Great job sir! 🧔🏻👍🏼
Videos like this are why skip to the end or read the comments first.
as a laptop repair texhy. i have thrown away so many hardrives and now i got into woodworking i could have made so many of these for sanding corners etc.
Darnit! you guys save me so much time with the 'heads up's........thanks!
Well the thing he made may not be something I have any need for, it has inspired me to try repurposing an old drive to make a turntable. It will be interesting to see if it is capable of driving a relatively massive platter and keeping speed consistency.
Any result?
also interested to hear if u tried it =)
You could have done the same with an old CD and drill bit on the end of a drill held in a vice
true but i think the hard drive might be more durable in the long run. at least for a DIY project
For all video I tried to guess what you were going to do finally. Very entertaining. Was it worthy? Surely there is lot of fun! Thank you.
The maker was definitely inspired by Heath Robinson. What an anticlimax.
I tried doing it but i got lost just after opening my hard disk. I must say being unsuccessful at it was one of my most worthy moments in life.
Where did you get stuck ?
@@martinkuliza Bait meet fish.
I _guess_ so. It works, but wouldn't a cheap (see Harbor Freight) mini-grinder do just as well?
Maybe use fine grit and slow speed to put a nice edge on sharp tools???
Awesome repurpose of old HD. Thanks for the Video!
There are a lot of small minded people here that didn't appreciate what you did, I thought it was fun to watch. Thank you.
Dude, very cool, but you have way too much time on your hands! Thanks for showing me what the inside of a hard drive looks like! I don't know how you thought this up but your talent is being waisted! I subscribed anyway! God Bless you and yours!😁👏😎
Thankyou
Genius!
Now that I know what you are going to use them for, you may *_not_* borrow my scissors! 😲
Such a laborious (funny too) procedure for such a simple thing is uncalled for.
Did you notice how the disk screws on? You can attach whatever you like, including Dremel bits. Now you can drill a small hole in any table, place the device underneath and have a great routing station that will last forever. People pay hundreds of dollars for these things. I know, because I just did. I wanted to make my own PC chassis.
It's amazing what people can come up with when they have no better use for their time!
I guess, good job. You got me to watch the whole video. Too bad you couldn't find a thinner/flat buffing wheel and put that on there. A buffing wheel would last long, and you buff out stuff. Either way, excellent job.

You can use the magnet to hold your floppy’s to the filing cabinet securely, it’s a joke, but the magnets are strong, I used them to amp up an antique speaker.
I think there would be easier and cheaper ways to make an equivalent device, (little motors aren't hard to come by,) but it was still a good exercise in electronics and patience! It was a well crafted build. But you gotta figure out an easier way to change the sandpaper. Maybe glue a foam or rubber ring onto the disk that comes up higher than the center ring so you don't have to cut the center out of the sand paper. Then you could just peel the old sheet off and stick a new one on.
use whatever magnet sheet is used for those novelty mass-printed refrigerator magnets and car "stickers," right? I feel like that'd work.

Very creative! 😎 ..But normally you would need something more powerful that can do more than scraping peanut butter from a screwdriver ..
This is a good project and credit to your skills, but i think you must have spent a lot of money on various parts to build this project. It would be cheaper to buy a grinding stone which would sharpen a lot of items and would last you a log time....none the less a nice project
Honestly buy all the driving electronics off AliExpress and it may be quite a lot cheaper. The idea is on point as to using the mechanics of the HDD. The main concern is how powerful this is so don't compare it too much with commercial solutions.
I guess if you love spending half your life disassembling and reassembling tiny mechanisms...this is good!!! But...I can think of dozens of things I'd rather be doing, that could actually improve my life!!!
But for some reason you have time to watch videos of people doing things you have absolutely no interest in. Which is rather weird when you refer to an afternoon project as "half your life". I would think you were busy saying goodbye to friends and family.

Useful on precision small parts using very fine grit, and with a stable holder and a work lamp with magnifying glass or a microscope.
Or you could just buy a sharpening stone or grinding wheel.

Ok, i will try
I stacked two dead drives on top of each other, and it became the solid foundation of a home made desk lamp.
Creativity wise this is great but practicality not so much. Makes good for content tho good job!

That might be a months wages for some...
I got my Walmart grinder for $12 on sale, normally $17. He spent money on the new drive motor, box, switches etc, He could have bought a file to sharpen the blades at the end.
Is good to use your imagination. Congratulations you are an inventor.
Yes, thank you
Bloody Brilliant a Bench Dremel style Sander. This video made me think having taken 500 + apart. What is the slowest RPM and can it be constant and stable, say at 33 1/2, 45, or 78?
That was very meticulous, and you have patience. Good job. How on earth did you get to this idea.
But can you record data on your old broken angle grinder?
Depends on what grit it is to how much data you can store, the finer the grit the more data …
