I rebuild/semi restore old power tools then sell them as one of my too many hobbies, primarily 1960 vintage Craftsmen drill presses but other things now and then. Here are some before and after pics of a Craftsman wet grinder on what I believe is a Delta stand. Added oil cups and brass and stainless washers to the grinder, made an adjustable motor mount out of oak. First attempt at nickel plating the unique bolts on the stand.IMG_0159.jpegIMG_1460.jpegIMG_1458.jpegIMG_1459.jpegIMG_1461.jpegIMG_0112.png

Spent the day cleaning the fuel system on one of the mopeds. 1981 Motron Medalist (Marinelli)

The last time it was run was 10 years ago. Need to get a replacement petcock unless I can get it to stop leaking with a custom nylon seal
