Bought at an estate sale for $20 because it looked cool and it coasted for a long time despite bad bearings when it was shut off. The bearings are manually oiled magneto thrust bearings. Accurate had new ones from Germany for $9 each. The paint is hammered black and hammered grey. I redid all the electricals and made a plate for the new toggle switch. The hardware was wire brushed and then buffed. The original stand base is from a cream separator and once I get something better than a block of wood to go in between it and the grinder it will be installed. I will use it as a wire brush/buffer since I have no guards. The grinder alone weighs 35 pounds.
