    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    Hey Tex GSmith... Thank you for the lead. I am trying to determine the quill travel specs. When we run the part we have to advance the quill .075 each cut with total of 50 cuts. So I have to have 3.75" to 4" of precision re settable travel. I need to see if the Cinci's do that.

    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    Reviving the question - WTB a 1940's Brown & Sharp No. 12 Production mill. Parts machine or running preferred. I was told 100's were used by gun makers in CT. I found a shop there that refurbished a dozen units for a mfr in WI, but I have not found any. Will pay a finder fee if you know of...

    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    Digger Doug. Thank you again. I have been studying the Nichols and mostly the Cincinnati production models from videos and specs. This link is appreciated. I did not know there were other production models. Everything I see in certain Cinc units fit my needs but I cannot see if the spindle...

    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    Digger Doug, Thanks for the question and Nichols tip. I'll answer what we do with it first. We make a single part with a single pass through a stack of 50 slotting cutters to a designed shape and then progress to a new part by shifting the cutters one position (cutter width) resulting in 50...

    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    Glad we can root him out. These guys are in all industries and surprised me how specialized he was here. He had me excited because I really really really need to find this additional mill(s). SIDE Note. Any tips from the forum on how to find or post besides the "for sale buy" section?? I...

    WTB: Brown and Sharpe No 12 Horizontal Plain Production Milling Machine 1940 era

    It is the modern version that I am specifically looking for. The 1800 and 1912 models do not do what I am looking for. In my original post I even show a picture of the unit that I already have. The modern picture above in this post is from LR Brown Co. in CT. They refurb these machines and...

    Well. I was warned on this forum about scammers. I got a pm with a phone number and I have the item you are looking for. I should have known from the beginning because he included my term 1940 era. The story went on he was moving tomorrow and it makes sense to do something different. Said...

    Brown & Sharpe 12 mill info

    Hey Aura, I know this thread is a little old but I liked that you experienced the No 12. We have one in our company that we use for production of a specific part. I need to find another one. It is actually the perfect for our job. If you know of any around I am on the hunt for one (or two).
