Weds, my friend will take this quite complete, not rusty, and probably fully functional machine to the scrap dealer - this is very sad - it's in the SanFernando valley (that's California for you folks east of the sierra nevadas), it's heavy, has about a 4 foot table, can use two wheels, has a 2 hp 3 phase motor in the base, flat belt through a center column to drive the wheel(s), it's old enough to have a tag riveted to it that talks about "war finish".
I've sent photos to a few folks, if you are interested, contact me promptly through the email address shown on my web page below, and include a phone number where my friend can reach you - If you want pieces, that is a possibility too - it has a really nice long table with Tslots it could be a poor man's mill, I suppose since it has an X and a Y axis and the table can be tilted.

Hey Bill,
Can you post the pix to the dropbox or upload to your website?
I respect you not wanting to scrap a perfectly good machine. However, living in a trailer park in NYS, I can't do much to help.

here are the links to the files in the drop box that show this unit - it is sitting there crying "please save me - I will work for almost free - SAAAAVE MEEEE" - I really really hate to tear this down
We will probably not scrap (now) the accessory with the 50 taper that rotates the part being ground - it's at least small enough to store somewhere, but it too may need to go.
Please, as I noted, contact me through the email on my web site if you can use this really cool grinder - you can certainly sharpen/grind almost anything, but of course it's a far cry from a CNC grinder (and 1000 times less expensive, too)

I just saw the pictures in the drop box and that is a nice tool and cutter grinder that would be a good addition to any home shop. Also with a mag table looks like it would work as a surface grinder also. Just how far is it from Salem Oregon?

I was hoping you were in the northern part of CA. A round trip at 10 MPG. wouldn't make it very cost effective. Also I just lost my job 3 weeks ago. Sure would be nice to have though.

Ill kick in $20 for gas. That will get you about 150 miles or so.
Anyone else?

Oh good -- Steve's system (the dropbox) translated the '&'s to '-'s. That is one of the nastiest characters you can put in a filename if you expect to move it to a unix system. (The command line sees the '&' and says "O.K. Everything to the left is one command which I'm supposed to run in the background, so I'll stat that, and then start working on the part after the '&' as another command.)
Good luck in moving it. I know that it is *way* too far away for me to consider it at all.
Enjoy, DoN.

I was so tempted to follow the & with sed or some other unix command but felt that might be too cruel, and if not too cruel, at least too much mental work to figure out something odd.
reminds me of a public demo of an early DOS based speech recognition program - it could parse and execute spoken dos commands, like "directory", so the demonstrator, in a huge auditorium points the mic at the audience and says "you try it" -in rapid succession someone shouts out "format", someone else shouts out "c colon" and a third person shouts out "enter", and the command executes before the startled demonstrator's brain recognizes what was happening
the machine got a reprieve to this weekend - Saturday I'll help my friend take anything worth saving off of it and push it into his trailer - it's on craigs list now for about 5 to ten cents per pound, here is the link : http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/tls/1450680037.html
so, if you want it, just act promptly

ok, guys, the machine is apart, but I saved a 2 hp GE 3 phase motor from the base of it - a huge old style motor - if anyone would like it for $20 or so (that's about what scrap value is), please let me know - it's in Glendale CA.

It must weigh about 100 lbs for the scrap value to be $20.

I took some insulated copper wire to the scrap yard last week. The #12 was $1.75 /# and the #2 was $2 bucks a pound. So the scrap value of the motor with lots of copper should be more than a buck a pound.

Depends on the size of the motor..and how much trouble it is cutting the windings loose from the rotor.

Discussion subject changed to "fa pullies and link belts Re: actually metal related - last chance for the Gallmeyer and Livingston Universal grinder - any offers?" by Bill Noble
I saved the drive pulleys and three link belts, certainly some of you folks can use them - right now they are at 99 cents - and yes, I can ship only the link belts a lot cheaper if you want them - there are three 40" (aprox) link belts and two huge pulleys - quite a few of you seem to use the 1/2 inch link belts .......
