This grinder was left by one of my daughters boyfriends, who needed to store some stuff in my shop, he never reclaimed it after they split. The address shows Baltimore on the name plate. The switch may of had a knob that fit over the soldered on shaft of the rotory switch (which still works). I removed the old cloth covered cord as the wire insulation was falling apart. This grinder at one time had rubber feet but those have disintegrated, leaving only the screws. Don't know what happened to the tool rests. I assume this was considered a portable tool altho it weighs 30.5 lbs.
