Answered an ad on offerup for a delta bench grinder, which is all the ad listed. Turns out, it’s a 10” cast iron behemoth I got for 25 bucks. 1725 rpm, 1 hp -- A good day is any day that you're alive.... |

Yeah, but there’s nothing wrong with having a spare heavy duty motor around the shop for some here-to-for unknown DIY tool project. :-) -- Andy - Seattle USA |
