Boyar-Shultz 612 Surface Grinder

[Vinny]

Al, this one was taken out of service. The cord was cut so they could use it on the replacement. It went to an overhead bus.

Stan, I know about ringing but don't recall ever doing it and don't even remember how. I usually just turn it on from afar. Learning the ring method would definitely be a plus. I'll probably make a dresser, I have a single point diamond for dressing bench grinders but have a hard time getting it flat, so I'll be grabbing one more suitable for that and use this one for the one I make.

Sunset, I haven''t opened the motor cover yet but I will be in the next day or so. I have it inside and on the bench now. He had the cabinet but wanted it for the grinder he was about to get. He said I can have it if the new one doesn't sit well with it. Thanks for the wheel info. I was wondering how to decypher that.

Tom, as I've said here before, I'm a cheapskate! Looks like I'll need a few wheels anyway.,

I did notice tonite that the X feed shaft has a TON of slop in it so it looks like I'll be making a new bush for it. Haven't taken it out yet to see what I'll need tho. I could probably just leave it as is, but I know that with that much slop that just turning the wheel I'd no doubt lift the table a couple thou so that will be fixed. Also the Y feed has a thumbwheel screw that locks it into position, it's frozen in place so that will have to be freed.

It also has a place for a vacuum but no fitting on it for the hose to connect, so I'll be making one of them. It also has a mount for a lamp and I have a lamp here with a broken post. The two of them are definitely going to get very friendly :)
