Pictures of G.T. Eames Drill Grinder in Use

[tailstock4]

I was curious if anyone had any information this G.T. Eames drill grinder or if anyone has one or has used one. I’ve posted some pictures of the drill grinder and a 1 1/2” drill bit that I sharpened on this grinder. I included some shots of this sharpened drill bit before and after drilling a hole.

I bought this grinder in Grand Junction, Colorado 20+ years ago. It was supposedly out of a silver mine. Anyway, it looks old. For example, it has poured Babbitt bearings and a really old stream cooled Baldor motor.

Thanks. I'm also curious if anyone has one or has used one. Wondering just how obscure they are.
