I purchased this at a local Flea Mkt a while back. It was seized up and required a weeks soaking in vinegar. The stone was soaked in Kerosene and cleaned. Nice little grinder.

Comments: Other than cleaning and new paint I replaced the cotter pins where nails had been used. I had to drill out the old cotter pin that secured the stone to the arbor.
