Quite awhile back there was a thread that mentioned a vintage grinder that was considered better than a Silvey or a Simington. I cannot for the life of me remember the name or the thread it was in. anyone got any ideas????
Thank you..Now we are getting somewhere. That is a tough name to spell hence the reason nothing came up.Zieglemeyer
‘Best’ is always subject to opinion and preference. But if you post a Zieglemeyer for sale here, I am sure someone will be interested.
Still surprised that an affordable square grinder has not been introduced in the marketplace.

There was a member here that was working on building them. I believe he was in Wisconsin.‘Best’ is always subject to opinion and preference. But if you post a Zieglemeyer for sale here, I am sure someone will be interested.

I found this thread after my last post here:There was a member here that was working on building them. I believe he was in Wisconsin.
Hopefully you can come to an agreement with yoir friends kids. Imo it would be a shame for good equipment to sit idle.It is possible I know where one is but I could not remember the name. I know years ago I saw it in the shop and it resembled a darn Bridgeport mill. The shop owner and I talked saws a lot and we made a lot of deals that he wanted to do " sometime" but just not today He was at my fathers funeral visitation and said he still wanted to honor all our "deals" Well unfortunately he passed away shortly thereafter. That was 5 years ago. One of his sons had zero interest in the saw side of the business and just sells bicycles. I now work with another one of his sons and need to speak with him but it will be a tough conversation. His father was a legend in our community and the cycling world.
Well when the owner showed it to me many years ago it had not been used in many, many years. On of his sons has the business now and has no interest in the saw stuff. I work with another of his sons but he is near retiremnet age so I need to talk with him soonHopefully you can come to an agreement with yoir friends kids. Imo it would be a shame for good equipment to sit idle.
