Is this Benchgrinder ready for the trash??
I inherited a rough looking old bench grinder.
I put a plug on it and the thing wouldn't turn on. As I said it was pretty old and also kind of rusty. I figured I'd look inside before doing anything else. When I opened it up I noticed about half a dozen of the copper windings had burned through. IIRC, the winding is suppose to be a single strand of wire in order to make an electromagnetic field. And if this is the case, I should just junk the grinder right? I has been to long since I've messed with electric motors and i can't remember. It would also be impossible to match and soldier the burnt wires. So, trash it or try something else? I know they are not that expensive new, but it is still hard to beat free. Thanks Ron |
