I wsa given an antique one, non functional. It has a sharpening stone one side and a grinding wheel the other. I rewired it today, and it now works again. I've sharpened spades, axes, chisels etc and now need to think of other uses for it: Any ideas?

Going to try it on Sunday for shaping and fabricating panels to weld onto the kid's kitcar, replacing corroded areas in the floorpans.

Over a year later, it is still the business for sharpening spades, axes, etc.  Very Happy
