My second machine of 2012. I was given a lead by a friend and after calling, the owner would not hold it and I couldn't make the 3-1/2 hr (both ways) drive. Turns out it didn't get sold and another member saw it and picked it up for me, and the first guy ruckered it to his home. Big thanks to both!
Rough looking but really not abused, the motor runs smooth and will be usable as is.After some rubbing, I was able to get the specs-

CYC- 60
PH- 1
V- 110
RPM- 3450
The tags are Plainfield NJ
Originally posted on OWWM as a 'Three Toed Grinder" its an example of the tripod stand option used on grinders and flexible shaft tools. I don't know if the eye shields are from WT or not, but they are laminated glass
