I found this grinder at one of the first garage sales of the morning. Above it was posted a big "Not For Sale" sign, so I looked it over just out of curiousness, bought some other things and went on my way. The sale had some old stuff, so I decided to go back at the end of the morning and see what was left. As I approached the grinder, I realized it had a price tag on it and the "Not For Sale" sign applied to the stepladder on the wall directly behind it. I got it for $60 which I thought wasn't bad for this region.

It came with a good, home made stand and separate task light. I had to do some re-wiring to correct some mis-wiring and restore the use of the lights that are built in, over the wheels.
