I found this in a pile of junk. I have a Van Dorn bench grinder. I have no idea what year it is, but it is very early. It is solid cast iron. You can see in the photos that I'm near complete on a modest restore. I don't have the other wheel guard. Still need a switch and correct wheel size. I plan on putting a buffing wheel on the other side.
