    "Pre-Block" Grinders--Where's the Love?

    Air Compressor Questions - Campbell Hausfeld VT-6108

    @Dirtbag another truly stimulating read. At the end of it all I suppose I arrive right where I started with @5ubtle comment "My suggestion is that you quit worrying about all these details and just run it" :rolleyes: On another note, I had to extract a broken drain plug this evening after work...

    Palmgren/Craftsman rotary cross-slide table damaged handwheel

    I purchased a Palmgren 183 8" rotary cross slide table for my drill press on ebay. The seller sent it to me in a USPS flat rate box with some packing peanuts. Needless to say, it did not make the journey intact. They were gracious enough to refund me my purchase price but now I am wondering if...

    let's see your craftsman block grinders

    I didn't get around to posting my grinder find this last summer but I found one (397.19440) on FB for $15 . A retired fellow said it was an extra he had when he closed his tire shop. By the time I got there, (45min) he said had had received 20+ requests. I add the above now, because I grabbed...

    JET BGS-6 Belt Sander-Grinder, any idea on date, parts, manual, anything?

    Thanks for the reply. Metal is precisely why I picked this piece up. When the weather warms up I might go through it although everything seems to run fine now though. As for paint, I don't even know where to start for the original color. It looks hammered but is it green? Blue? ;shrug; If...

    JET BGS-6 Belt Sander-Grinder, any idea on date, parts, manual, anything?

    I picked this of on the way home from work today for $60. An older working carpenter said he had it from new (50 years). Used it for sharpening chisels mostly. I can't seem to find anything about it online. Any ideas about anything related are welcome, I do not know too much about JET products...
