This has a 54" chuck, 60" swing, 16,000 lbs.

I hope you save it, that's certainly a unique machine.
Thank you!
guess I missed it in my search
It was more than that. A horse is not exactly a genius, but is superbly competent at BEING .. a horse.. including leaving the "heavy thinking" to a trusted teamster.Im glad I don't have to use horses to move it or put it in place, I bet that would have been quite a sight.
I think it is an amazing looking piece of equipment, I hope the auction will have visitation to see what condition is really is in. I imagine it will need work, like most of the machines I get 'for a good deal'

Johnoder: Thank you for the scans, that is very helpful. thank you for pointing out the bearing could be below surface, I hope I can see the piece of equipment soon and identify. I am going to pour a pad (if I plan on getting it) so putting a hole in it will be easier before I pour
If anyone wants to donate to the 'save historical equipment fund' I estimate it will be about $3200 to transport it in town with rigging
Right now the main roadblock is the wife saying 'will you actually have projects for that'. Our machine shop is more R&D support so lots of single CNC parts and custom one-time parts.
Thanks for all the information, I hope this works out.
Do note the specs gives length of spindle on the 5 Foot as 48" - easy to see all that is below face of chuck.
+1 on the donation and I'm close enough to drive over if I can help that way, assuming that I'm not on a job.
Assuming that the chuck surface is 2 feet above the floor then the beam and toolslide assembly would have to come off.Wonder how much that would save if we take it off? Or if the tool slides are angled to 45 degrees, which I expect they would, you should get the same head room.
