Comments:
Purchased at a farm auction in western MD. The type 50 grinding wheel had separated from the mounting plate, repaired with Gorilla glue. The wheel appeared to have seen very little use. The motor is 1/3 HP 3450 RPM and 3 phase, runs well. Will clean up and repaint. The drill holder will accept from 1/8" to 1/2" according the the inscription on the holder. According to Wikipedia Farrel Birmingham Corp. became Farrel Corp. in 1963. This grinder should have been manufactured after 1963.
