Norton | A120-M7VBEThat's quite a haul
Could you tell me what the number on that Norton cup wheel with the small hole? I've been looking for something like that for my tool cutter/grinder.
Thanks,
John

Ah, Mahrs... Under the header of "Wish that I know then what I know now." I came across a carton of them in the '80s at a sale in SoCal.Nice haul for sure . I'm glad I don't get to those type sales , I wouldn't be able to walk in the houses . That Starrett 196 set goes for $200 + new so the price of a new crystal isn't a factor . That was a steal if in nice shape . I'm getting ready to sell a few of mine now , just have too many and I generally use the Mahrs when I need to . I love junk ( tools ) myself and to see this in a dining room makes me feel right at home .

What Grit/Grade are you looking for? I was wondering why this one was 120 - seem real fine. But then I don't know tool & cutter grinders.Thanks, I'll check if they still have it....

P.S. I was born in Santa Clara, can still remember when they built things like grinding wheels there
Just posted over on your Hilco thread.The challenge I have is my motor has a 3/8" arbor so very few grinding wheels will fit, mostly looking for a cup type wheel for grinding cutters. Here's the unit in question.

I bought this little universal cutter grinder and can't find anything about it on the interwebs. Motor is a Dumore Type 2GM which I also can't locate. The machine is pretty simple so I don't think I really need any manuals or the like but it would be nice to know a little history. Hilco...www.hobby-machinist.com

Keep an eye out in the Tri-Cities & Kingsport area, there have been several up that way this past season.Man you have been busy. I have been searching SW Virginia but haven't found any deals.
