I've found a 1941 Cincinnati no4 vertical mill that looks to be in good shape and I would consider buying
BUT it only has a max rpm of 450!!!
Is there any way to boost those rpm's?
Toss in a different rpm main motor, change sheaves and belts?
I have access to literally piles of motors (electric motor repair facility, all hp)
There great iron but that's just too slow. Even 900rpm would be way better
I'll mostly be using it to cut keyseats in heavy shafts and boring holes.
Any insight or concerns with these mills is welcome too. Thanks!!
