Toss up whether to post here or antique. But anyway furthering my addiction I bought a new to me toy today. My machine dealier friend and me went to look at some stuff yesterday and he went back today but seller could not make the mill run. He bought it anyway and I showed up at his place as it was delivered. He left and I played !! Powered it up and did a few electrical checks and discovered the big long lever that I thought was a brake/clutch was really just the power on/off switch ! With the spindle running I was able to determine all axis power feeds worked. Has universal table 9X42" 40 taper. I knew what he paid for it and I got it for 2 Franklins over that with the knoledge that everything worked. I'll get some better pictures when I get it home. Some what surprised that it does not seem to have rapids in the feeds and so far don't see a way to stop the spindle and keep the feeds active. Of course I'm a total noob on horz mills.
