The power switch was broken on the way home :<( Anyone have a spare, original toggle switch from Walker-Turner?

The grinder came with one stone and one wire wheel installed. There are an additional 6 stones of various grits included. Also a Cast Iron star dresser manufactured by DESMOND URBANA, OHIO USA was included. The tool rest for the right side and the star dresser were hanging on the rear of the stand. The home made wooden stand needs to be replaced due to rot on the ends of two of the legs.
