Comments:
This grinder and Powr-Kraft motor came mounted on a four-legged stand from a local seller. He wanted $50 for it, but after the motor buzzed and smoked when I plugged it in, he convinced me to take it for free. (If the garage had been better lit and could see the condition of the cord, I probably wouldn't have even tried plugging it in!) The motor runs quiet as a mouse after replacing the cord and giving it a general cleaning. I haven't figured out how I'll mount this, but it's too cool to not use.

Thanks to Brian Kachadurian for helping me identify this.
