Please log in for more thread options I may have to resort to turning up a disk which has a hole bored in its
periphery. Then I could install the disk instead of a grinding wheel, put a pin
in the hole and grab onto it, and then I could crack the nut on the other end.
This is a nice little grinder from the 1970s it looks like. I think there's a
little tiny bit of corrosion in the shaft nut.
I tried grabbing a wheel on the other end to loosen the stuck nut, didn't work.
I could always stick a scrap grinding wheel on and grab that with Vise-Grips, I
have about six old bench grinding wheels, all scrappers.
