Sold*** Simington 451c

[Time's Standing Stihl]

I bought this grinder early in 16' As you will see by the pics, the grinder tipped over in a huge wind storm when I opened my shop. Only thing that was affected was one of the dressers. I sent it to Shaun Carr and had him weld it up and check the tolerances on everything before it was put back in service.

Will come with a new wheel of buyers choice. Think I have blue, gray waxed, and salmon. Also will come with 2 single point dressers and one multi point.

The stands these come with are definitely NOTHING to brag about, but can be sent for additional fees.

$700 plus shipping......no trades

Here is a quick video of it

It works perfectly and would have zero worries. Last time I checked it was just a titch under $1000 for a new one.

What Clint didn't mention is that he is NOT a commercial shop and he's used this relativity little for more "hobby chain sharpening." Clint is a great guy and I wouldn't expect anything but the best.

Also it sounds like I might be headed to Masterminds from Iowa to North Central TN in Oct... if you can wait I can probably transport within route.

Exactly, I would be very surprised if this grinder has seen 100 chains. Pretty much brand new.

Very clean machine. Why are you selling it?
Awol had a simington at Randy's Gtg last year, hes a really good guy. He helped a lot of people out by sharpening there chains, and demonstrating how to use it.
If one was to buy this thing of beauty, would you offer any help on how to use it?

Upgrading to another machine is the only reason I'm getting rid of it.

I would definitely help as much as I can in the learning process. Most people seem to catch up on Swingarms fairly fast

Swingarms are by far the easiest to learn. I'll offer my help to whoever buys it as well.

Thank you Shaun! You are always helpful

If Shaun is willing to help, that alone is worth it.

Dang Clint, too bad I didn't know you were considering selling it. I bought the 451A that was for sale a little while ago. Good shape but has the two separate holders for L R cutters.

Hmm,
How could you possibly upgrade from this?
I'll have to stay tuned an watch.

My thoughts too. Did anyone ever find out what was considered an upgrade? It's not like Silvey are around and still making Pro Sharps.
