Sear Craftsman 115.7561 bench grinder. Belonged to my dad and I remember it in the 1960s but could be older. Still in use today, original motor. had to replace the power cord last year.

There is glass in those guards as you can see from the broken piece. Dad was grinding something back in the 60's that broke the glass.
