One of the downsides of living in Michigan is the lack of jobs/work, and business closings.
On the up side is the availability of machines because of the same. I found this surface grinder on Craigslist. It was left behind from a business that folded and and the owner sold the building. The new building owner wanted it out of his way. Reid 2c surface grinder with electro magnetic chuck. Some surface rust, but no pitting. I removed the table, the ways and pads are in good condition. Motor and bearings are very smooth, I can not hear it run 6 feet away. Magnetic chuck is strong. Included was 20 assorted grinding wheels and 5 arbors for mounting the wheels. Seller even loaded it onto my trailer. All for $300.00
My barrel trimming heads have never been so sharp.
