I have an Axminster drill grinding attachment that was in a box of
stuff from my father's tools .Unfortunately , I don't have the
instructions ... I can probably puzzle out how to use it , but
would prefer to find a copy of the instructions - so far the only
thing I know for sure is that it is supposed to work on the side of
the grinding wheel . If anyone has a set of the instructions , I
would really appreciate a copy . I did already google for the info ,
and came up dry .

Thanks for the link , Bob . I was unable to find a manual there , but not
to worry , several others make units that are virtually identical , and I
have downloaded and printed one fro General - their #825 is a dead ringer
. And for all I know , this is one is another brand - Axminster was just
the first hit on a Google Images search .

Note that this grinder requires rather precise adjustment of the distance
from the wheel to achieve proper clearance angles along with feeding. There
are some examples on the web showing the grinder on an adjustable slide
mount. You probably will not get a good drill the first time but it is
possible once you get it sorted out.
