Give yourself a Christmas gift - this is a project for your 2025 pleasure. The machine was disassembled several years ago. Some parts were refinished and some were not. Something got in the way (can’t remember what) and it went on the back burner. I now have way too many projects and this is one I will likely never use so it’s time it moved to another home.
I believe all parts are present and accounted for but its been awhile so not positive that is true – there may be some missing hardware. The pedestal and grinder have been completed. Tables, water pans and trunions still require work. The grinder is a model CJ23-505 with a serial number of 35-9458 which puts it as a 1946 build. It is a single phase, ½ HP, 3450 RPM 110 volt machine. The switch is not original. It came with a drum switch on the pedestal and I modified the drum switch to fit in the face of the grinder. It operates in both forward and reverse. The grinder has new bearings and power cord and runs fine. I fabricated new brake shoes for it.
Included is a light – Its old but not original I don’t think. The light was disassembled completely cleaned, painted, reassembled and rewired. Also includes the elusive CG-4 miter gauge. I recently purchased this and haven’t cleaned it up. There is also a reproduction cast aluminum miter gauge head.
Tables, water pans and trunions all need work. I’m not sure what is going on with the trunions – I seem to have quite a few – not sure if I bought extra or not. There is a bag of misc hardware. There are also wheels – not sure what they are or how good they are – I would plan on replacing.
Finally there is a perfectly intact pedestal included. It has been cleaned and painted.
I would like to get $400 for the package. I think the pedestal and miter gauge alone are worth more than half that. As always I am open to offers but the asking price is very close to what I have invested. I can work with ruckers and can hold the machine with payment. Delivery assistance may be available in the NC, southern VA and northern SC areas. Feel free to ask questions or request additional pictures.
Thanks for looking
