I make Bookends from Old Railroad Track for a bookcase by cutting two pieces of railway track on an angle using a 9-inch angle grinder,

This was a good metalworking project for me, I totally enjoyed doing this, it was one of those simple jobs I like, putting something on the workbench cutting some stuff off it, and cleaning it up a bit, and the job is done. Hahaha, Good times.

I hope you enjoy my video of me making Bookends from a Railway Track project. Hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.

The main tools used, are 5-inch and 9-inch angle grinders, a 5-inch random orbital sander, and a bench vice.
A metal cutoff saw or a bandsaw would be the safer way to do this, so the cut can be done in one go so there would be much less risk of a blade jamming, etc, than using an angle grinder.

Always use all the correct safety gear, and use your tools safely, I am not a good role model for this.
