Comments:

I got this from the same folks I got my Power King 280 8" Tablesaw from in 2016.
I need to find some more of the parts for it, but was able to gently coax the grinding slag and caked on neglect from it's surface over the coarse of about an 8 hour span.
It cleaned up nice, and so it gets to keep it's original paint, and will be a running part of my shop eventually even though I have three modern grinders. Should be an easy flat belt to make with leather belts from any thrift store or cut up a leather jacket.
Oh, wait a minute! I have a nice leather laptop case, and I don't even have a laptop!

(Admin BAK 1/23/2017: I suspect the tool rest arm is not original to this grinder--probably fabricated by a previous owner.)
