I bought this from a junk store. It was dirty and stuck but freed up with a little persuasion. This is the gearbox model. A flat belt pulley version was also available. The gearbox has a 25:1 ratio. I hooked up a 1/4 hp, 1140 rpm motor to run it. I've never tried to file a blade, it's just fun to watch. You can see it run here.
