You can look forward to allot of vise advice on GJ.
Might have to check to see if grinders have ever been mentioned on this forum

Let's do a double.
Yes been reading lots on vises and grinders. From what I’m reading I think my little half horse china grinder is done. I tore it apart and cleaned it up. All the copper windings are black as in burnt. After reassembly it will start if I give it a helper spin but not by itself. No bearings just bushings. Wife gave 10$ at an estate sale. Love my lady , but tools ain’t her thing. I’m teaching she is learning. Thanks again guys

Have you checked the start capacitor for damage/burns/bulging?
I guess I’m gonna have to ring a grinder parts picture identification guide some where to figure out what’s what. Lol. Would that be the springy collar on one side of the armature? Only thing I saw that might be adjustable by where it sit on the shaft.
