Comments:
This is a Model VC accessory for Hammond CB-76, CB-77, and C-4 Chip Breaker Grinders. The unit comes with a base to mount on a table, or can be removed from the base and mounted directly on to the grinder as shown in the picture below. It takes 5C collets up to 1" round, 3/4" square, and 1/2" I.C. Triangular. When I purchased this I had no idea the blueprint for the unit was behind the foam in the box so it was a great discovery that added a lot of knowledge on the design and use of the accessory.
