Creusen bench grinder burned out motor

[Phil_D]

Having a bit of a clear out and was going to list an old creusen bench grinder I haven’t used in ages. Fired it up and quickly got some smoke and a burning plastic smell (it ran smoothly though). Stripped it down and the motor looks burnt.

is this worth the hassle in fixing? I’m unsure how much this is worth

not worth the bother if the windings are cooked. plenty of good second hand ones available

Cheers bud, I’ll advertise it for free if anyone wants it. If not I’ll bin it

It has cooked it self. A shame they were good little grinders.
The switch was/is a double one. Worth keeping.

Can I be a cheeky bagger.

Can I snaffle the guards and wheels for A MIS?

Why not just gut it and fit a pulley?
