I have a 8" 1 HP bench grinder that had something fall on it when in storage.As a result the spindle suffered a bend about where it exits the case. Dial indicator says .012" run out.
It was a Taiwanese bench grinder but good quality for its day as it is about 30 years old and before its accident was good performer and would run on for a couple of minutes after switch off.
I can disassemble to the stage where I can put the spindle with attached rotor under a hydraulic press in vee blocks.
Is the best way to straighten the shaft or is another way recommended?
Thank you
