John,

There is a very nice set of toolpost grinder plans by C.W.Woodson in the August/September 1943 issues of Popular Science. If you are interested, I found the September issue on Google Books and I have the August issue at home.

They are addicting John. My dad has pretty much every issue of Popular Science and Popular Mechanics from the 1940's and 50's. They are is a goldmine of information for the machinist.

I found a South Bend version a few years ago in a dumpster. Last week i went in a thrift shop and an old machinist (or his kids) donated lots of his items and i got four new 3" dia grinding wheels for .50 cents...Bob
