Belt Driven Bench Mounted Grinder
Bench Mounted Grinder: "The Diamond" Patented in July 1888.
Cast Iron body and hood, Free and Powered pulley operated off a line shaft, or PTO, Staionary engine, etc., white metal oil lubricated bearings, Hole cast into body, and sides/drain hole in base, indicate this was designed to be used wet.
I restored this with my late father 35+ years ago. We put in a new shaft and had the bearings re-mettled and we scrapped them in. I used it as someting to be driven by my stationary engine. It has been stored for many years in the garage and I am having a clear out, so it needs a new home.
It measures:
Base 180 mm x 560mm
Overall width (including pulleys) 400mm
Overall height 400mm
Located in Dorset
