We inherited an old sucker in a shop merger that had been hacked and beaten to pieces, but after pulling off the obviously non-original parts (machine had been heavily modified to do a job it really wasn't ment to) I think I figured out what it is!
It looks to be a very old Cincinnati #2 Tool and Cutter Grinder. I haven't found the original tooling but the bed and movements seem to match up. It dosn't have any tags other than the door has the old Cincinnati machinery co. info cast into it. It looks like it was originally designed to run off a gang-drive. It has more of a pedistle type build than the box/table build to the old #2's.
I'm hoping to at the very least find a photo of what this machine looked like originaly (google hasn't helped) so I can see what's parts will have to be fabricated. Best-case-senario, I'd like to put it back operable condition, set it up with a better drive unit, and put it back to work in our shop.
Sorry I don't have pictures right now. Hopefully I can put some up in a couple weeks but till then... Does this unit ring any bells for anyone?
