There's no grinder more simple than a swing arm.

Of the original Silvey or original Simington 450 you can even make new chain stops at home for they are made of 1/4" key stock.

Even the late model Silvey and Simington 451C are rather simple with most parts available at the hardware store except for the main castings and the motor.

The motor on the swing arms are so lightly loaded that they should last a life time with an occasional bearing change.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .
