The machine pictured is a Porter-Cable 'wet/dry' grinder, generally for metal working, albeit used for other materials. This model machine is pictured in the 1951 Porter-Cable 'Abrasive Machine' catalog submitted by Robert Vaughan.
I purchased this from a fine machine shop in Wilmington, Massachusetts in late spring, 2006.
