Anybody Restore Bench Grinders?

[theamcguy]

I have a B&D bench grinder I bought in the late 70s, first tool I put in my garage sentimental value. Anyway the motor is acting up turn it on and it either spins super fast or it won't turn or hardly turn and as no torque. Like to get it fixed if anybody wants to tackle it. Send me a PM. TIA

IF it is a 5" 7900 series or similar.......just get another one, they can be had for as little as $10 ......just sold one for that amount.

Another one might replace the tool, but it won't replace the sentimental value.
