craftsman grinder

Saw this come up on CL shortly after posted; picked it up yesterday.

Looks like a repair was made to the right wheel guard. Part number 3160352. Otherwise it looks really good. Runs nice and smooth. I'll dress the wheels and it'll be ready to use.

Bonus, included the stand and the owners manual. Wondering if the stand is original.

Awesome grinder. I recently picked up the same grinder with stand but it's a 3/4 horsepower version. Great score!

I believe an original stand from that era had a heavy rectangular base, not the three-legged version on yours. I would guess that your stand was added later.

Yup. Original base looks like the one below. This is mine when I got it.

Nice. Does that one have 8" wheels?

I believe so but I haven't measured them yet.
