Stone!

[LarsHansen]

Hi.
Just "inherited" an old SuperGrind 1200 in pretty bad shape.
Reason tells me to trash it, but the challenge was too sweet...
Having crushed the stone, it became clear to me why the stone wobbled quite badly. At the top of the hole in the case, the plastic was melted. I intend to draw and 3D- print a patch including a new, enforced hole.
My main problem is to get the hole size and placement absolutely correct.
Would someone with a SG1200 be so kind as to help me with two measurements?
First one would be the correct diameter of the hole in the stone end of the case.
Secondly I would like to know thickness of the enforced ring around the hole.
Thanks very much.
Your's,
Lars

Closeup. Not a pretty sight

Lars,

Some of the 1200s had overheating problems which caused the openings to melt. I highly recommend that you email the closeup photo to Tormek support (support@tormek.se).
Please post your reply. We are curious.
