Found this on a local Craigslist in 2009, and looked to be complete. It appeared to be an arn base, but once I got there, it turned out to be wood! The 14" diameter grindstone is in great shape, a fine-grained "Nova Scotia" sandstone, and had not been abused by sitting in water too long. Pillow blocks hold a 1/2" shaft that run thru the stone, and the jackshaft appears to be original and complete. Even has the original copper water pot to drip water on the surface of the stone. The tool holder would not work for the PO, so he decided to move it on - glad he did.
