<< I bought a grinding stone for $40.00. It is 10" across the face and 26" 
 in diameter. Weighs at least 250 or 300 pounds. Too heavy for everyone 
 else. It has a 1" axle with a belt drive wheel on it. Anyone have any 
 ideas how I can set this monster up and get it spinning using manpower. >>

Yeah...rig up a series of gears or different sized belts and wheels, thereby 
connecting El Grande Grindstone to an exercise bike, then find some exercise 
nuts to pedal for ya.

Hey you asked for ideas, you didn't say they had to be practical.
