Awl--

The guy that has these DoAll's and Roll-ins also has Baldor Grinders, w/
diamond (left shaft), carbide (right) wheels which have *4* mounting holes,
and grind and the side--and also maybe on the edge, for green/white wheels.
6" wheels, 3450 rpm, 1 ph.

They have nice band-saw-like tables, grooved for guide, about 6x12, and a
"water pot" which drips water/coolant thru gravity onto the wheel. Sits on
a post on top of the wheel housing. Really neat.
Also nice cast coolant wells, beneath the wheels.

Asking $350.

I sold one like this, although in 3 phase/440v, for $100.

"Tool Grinders" is the most common name for this grinder. Ive got one
of the Baldors..two actually..the second being a Taiwanese clone. One
is set up for carbide, the other for HSS.

Be advised that Harbor Freight is now selling a clone..which appears
to be very well made, rugged and a virtual clone..for $149 with sales
pricing dropping this to about $100. A number of folks on
rec.crafts.metalworking have purchased these, with no problems
noted..and a good number of these people are retired machinists or
active commercial machinists.
