Seriously tempting. It will be another month or so before I could take that road trip; if you dispose of it before then, I will be sad but fully understanding. I'll post or PM you when I am in a position to get on the road.

What sort of price? Any idea the weight? Do I need to bring something to load it? I assume everything is working on it?

I paid $1500. for the surface grinder 30 years ago. I would love to get as much as I can, we need to talk about a price that works for both of us. I don't use it, it needs to be gone. I used it for plastic injection mold work but been retired for a while, the grinder is taking up floor space and collect dust. It is 2 hp 3 phase I have a 3 ph converter you can have to run the grinder at home on 240 volts. It works great, it seams loud but I think the only reason is seam loud there is no factory full of 100s of machine and other things making noise. LOL. Grinder and chuck work great.

Its not very heavy, maybe 500 lbs. It weighs much less than a milling machine. I have no way to load it unless you have a trailer that lowers down to the cement floor. I can probably rent a lift to load it rental place is only 5 miles away.
 
I'll check back in a month or so. I also have a lead on something closer, so that may change my interest. But if not me, surely someone on here needs that grinder!

I will make someone a good very deal on it. I don't need it anymore. I would rather have the extra floor space than the grinder.
