What is this?
« on: March 12, 2012, 07:02:22 PM »
Hi folks,

Just browsing on Gumtree and I came across this curious looking machine.

Tried Googling but I can't figure out what it's called or what it's normally used for.

Anybody know?

It's a Snow ring grinder, when you wind the wheel at the bottom the grinding wheel sticks up out the table.
Used for resurfacing cylinder heads and similar jobs.
