Tool grinder pictures up

Hello all

Just finished cleaning up the Tiplap grinder I got at auction on the weekend. Nice little unit. the shaft was seized into the toolrest but some penetrating oil and a deadblow hammer took care of that, and some scotchbrite clean up the crud inside. I disassembled everything, cleaned and reassembled it. The only problem was with the grinding wheel adapter, one of the mounting bolts holes is stripped, I will have to helicoil it. I was thinking of repainting it but didn't feel like filling my lungs with overspray today :-) I contacted the manufacturer about a manual and parts list but at 20 pounds(almost $50cnd)+shipping that is close to what I paid for the grinder. So if anyone has a copy for sale or can scan one for me it would be appreciated. here are the pictures

Hey James,

Looks very good. Should have been a "Gloat" posting! I wouldn't be surprised if that thing cost well over 4 grand Cdn when new.

Let us see some of what you sharpen with it when you get around to it. Nice photos too, by the way.

Take care.

Nasty corrosion on that diamond tread.

Say, what does the chart over the wheel of the grinder tell you?
