Can you identify this poor old Bench Grinder?

I actually think this is yours. There is no doubt yours is a Baldor. The wheel housing has the same two raised circles on the side closest to the motor as yours does, you just have a guard mounted to one of the two. The discharge is the same shape, too. Yours is just missing the end caps of the wheel covers.

^^^ sure looks like it.

@lafester the wheel housing diameter? Is that 3/4 horse power? Thank you!

Max size wheel that will fit in the housing.

Oh great, I'm sure I was going to ask that sooner than later after I confirm is a keeper, you know your stuff @lafester, thank you!

@MileHighRover I think so too! Other than the 3 holes in the back and the stuff missing on mine, it does look very very similar!
Do you know what the specs are for that one? Is that your grinder or just a picture you found? Great looking grinder right there, love the stand too!

Thank you again so much for your help!

@lafester what is the purpose of the switch plate? Just a security measure to prevent accidentally turning the grinder on/off? I can see if my brother can 3D print one for me, thanks!
