Comments:
This grinder/sander/buffer came from a pseudo-salvage yard/mechanic shop whose owner was getting grief from the landlord and county for the state of the place. He was clearing out as much as he could, and I brought home several pedestal grinders. All were running, but badly in need of some care and attention. This is just a dual-shaft 3/4 hp 3450 rpm motor with OEM sanding accessories, one 9" disc and one 4" drum. It is mounted on a very heavy homemade pedestal that uses some form of brake drum or such as the base.
