Grinder tagged as Van Dorn(made by B&D). The stand is tagged Black & Decker. Came out of P.C. Phillips in Stoughton Mass. The company was located just outside the town center.
I grew up in Stoughton and remember the parking lot was always jammed with cars and at 5pm there would always be a traffic jam with all the machinists trying
to get home. The Grinder is missing the water cup but other than that looks to be complete and in good shape. The stand is Hex shaped and very heavy. Is single phase but has a 3 phase plug.
