>>HISTORY<<
I found this grinder at an estate sale in Warren Michigan, 25Jan2013.
No further info known.

>>MACHINE<<
Early to mid-1930s Walker-Turner Driver Line 4" belt driven grinder.
Steel combination flat and V-belt pulley.
Gray-iron body, stamped steel tool rests and arbor flanges.
Bronze bearings on a 5/8" steel shaft, with ½-24 threaded ends.
The PO installed 6" grinding wheels, but the machine was not hooked to a motor.

UPDATE May 2014: I no longer own this grinder--sold to a fellow OWWMer for his lineshaft collection.
