Thanks for the flashback Ken.
I spent many hours running a pair of Blachard grinders, squaring up stock for a form tool company. It was probably the most boring job I ever had except when there was a power fluxuation and the electric rotary chuck released the hundreds of parts it was holding. That why those machines always have dents in the guards.
