Re: Square Grinders

I bought an original stand from Silvey.

The later Simington 451's have a socket cast into the main frame to receive a 1 1/4" water pipe with a 1/4 - 20 set screw to hold it in place.
this makes a stand simple for you can just take an old wheel rim or even an old tire and fill it with concrete with the pipe square in place and you have a stand.

The Silvey Razur Sharp and Swing Arm as well as the Simington 450's just have a 1/2" bolt hole in the main frame so you need something flat and about 4" sq and 3/8" thick to bolt the grinder to.  I didn't have any steel plate and arc welder handy so I just bought a genuine Silvey stand. I had a stand on hand but the top plate is only 1/8" and there was no way to get inside the pipe with a nut.

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 . . .
