I hate to hear this.  Anyone know if Simington is still alive or are they done too?  All internet traffic redirects to Madsen's.

It has been awhile since I was in touch with Simington.   I do not know what is going on with them.

The guys at Madsens really know their stuff with those square grinders. Just as good or better then the factory.  :)

They pretty much shut down over three years ago. I copied all those files back then.

At the time I had bought a earlier Silvey swing arm that had been a forgotten derelict for 30 years.

Silvey didn't have anything but wheels and dressers for it then. I went through the thing with all new bearings, springs, and fasteners I bought locally.

The swing arm is a simple device. The early Silvey and the first model Simington are identical in every way, motor and everything.

I've thought of it as my new grinder. Works great.
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 . . .
