This is a quick mockup of a Bench Grinder Tool Rest based on plans from a popular woodwork youtuber.   Use this to see if this style is the right size and compatible with your grinder and style of sharpening. 

In my case, I build per plans in plywood and it was way too low and the tilting never held securely.  Also, the angle and platform adjustment nuts ended up bumping into each other and difficult to access on the right side.  Had I printed the model first, I could have made small alterations when I was building in wood.

NOTE:  This is not designed to be functional –  just to prototype and see if the size/angles will work for you.  If you decide this works for you, purchase the full plans and build yourself in ¾" plywood.  https://stumpynubs.com/product/bench-grinder-tool-rest/

 

Print in separate 3 parts.  Assemble with ¼" bolts.
