I have a Phillips burr grinder that I haven't used in many years. It was
made in Japan, so that gives you an idea of its age:-) It is supposed to
have 10 grinding settings but they all grind to the same coarseness. I
cleaned it but there is a spring mechanism that holds the burr down and
I can't get to it. So it sits on the shelf.
I have a grinding attachment that is over 50 years old for my Kenwood
mixer. It works fine but it's way too much trouble to use.
