Kijiji find. Picked up evening of Mar.18/16. London, Ontario. At a strip club. Yes, at a strip club! (good for a chuckle, and eye candy) The owner of the club told me he was selling it for a friend, the grandson of the original owner. The grandfather might of been a handy-man because it came with this homemade steel table, grinder, gear reducer, and a few brass fittings. It also had a plexi lower wheel hub/cover. (was That original I wonder?) It still ran. One door knob and blade guard missing, otherwise it all seemed there. Serial # plate at the bottom of base. Add more later.

Runs pretty smooth. Everything sandblasted/painter...
Don't like the light mounted to the guide block.
I used the 1/4 hp grinder motor. A little pitting left in the table top way. (no biggy)

Comments: 12" Henry, Restored, for the most part...I don't like the guide bearings. Too noisy. I'll change them to blocks. Still needs the blade guard...
