I talked to them today. He was nice enough to csll me. Stopped selling them a number of years ago. You may have purchased one of the last ones.

I found the old invoice. It was $58.

No wonder they quit selling them!

I do my rakers on a regular chain grinder and shaped the wheel to the shape of the raker. It works fine.

I do my rakers by hand which works out fine but relatives come around with chains that won't cut and that's a lot of filing to get those rakers down to where the chain will cut again.

I have the raker wheel for the usg and never have used it to date. I just set takers by hand still.

That old Silvey raker grinder looks so awesome! I would love to run into one of those. I file them by hand also. But, I'll confess, I hate it.

That seems to be rather expensive to me. Is that the going rate for an old silvey grinder?

Not really. Maybe if a collector wanted it. Think about how some folks pay big bucks for old saws now days.

Would be a nice one being the first off production in a chainsaw museum.

I just wanted to save pics as it was nice clean unmolested original.

Just saving pics of this $300 Simington 451 square grinder south bend MI

CL ad = Good used Simington chain grinder for grinding square ground chains.
Serial # 172. I'm guessing an older model. Everything seems to work.
Forward and reverse on motor.

Different motor then I have seen in past, very small around. @660magnum you know anything on this one?
