Black & Decker Valve Grinding Machine -- Vintage Quality.

[goodfellow]

I love my wife!!! When my wife saw me bookmark this valve refacer on Craigslist, she told me she'd buy it for me as my birthday present. She's definitely a keeper.

I drove down to see the guy in southern Virginia, and to my GREAT surprise -- THIS THING IS BRAND NEW!!!! :wav: The guy's grandfather passed away a few months back and it was supposed to go into his small engine repair shop. Poor guy never got to use it. It was uncrated and set in a corner of his garage.

It hadn't touched a valve -- ever!! Also included was a B&D air powered valve seat grinder, a complete set of stones and guides (some still in their OEM packaging), a B&D grinding stone truing jig, a set of valve guide reamers, a few valve spirng removal tools, a set of carbide valve seat cutters, lapping compound, seat micrometer, and a full set of valve guide brushes.

Man am I glad I made that 130 mile trip!!!! I've always wanted one of these machines and now have a pretty good machine shop setup.
