Harty features some before and after photos of his refurbished 8" Waldown bench grinder in his Projects link. Projects Gallery (http://petensneak.com/zenphoto)

So Peter are the anodised badges new or restored? If they are restored, how'd you go about it? My GMF is crying out for some similar attention.

Hi BT

the badges are new the original ones where toast
we have a system at work that prints into a coating on aluminum sheets
so i just recreated the design and printed out new ones

Thanks Peter.

Shame we don't have the same system at work.:no:

You've done a neat job on the grinder. I have a fondness for Waldown but I don't own one of their grinders. One day maybe.

Hi,

That's a nice job. It's better than my chinese no-name grinder. Probably out last mine as well.
