I am considering buying it as my first mill because its cheap and im just now finishing college.
My main concerns are is this a decent machine to learn on? Is it junk and not worth it?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. This is the first mill i have found in my budget but i dont want to waste money on junk either.
Thanks agian.
Thanks moonlight,
im going to go check it out tomorrow if possible.
Then i just have to figure how how in the hell to get it off the trailer an into the garage.
Any suggestions?
I thought maybe put it on a pallet on the trailer then pallet jack. But i have never out a mill on a pallet so i do not really know if it can take the weight?
Thanks for the help.
Be sure to look closely at the Y axis (in-out) handwheel arrangement. It looks like someone put a die-cast hardware store v-pulley and belt on there by way of Y power feed. Given the looks of the rest of that beast, I would have expected Y feed to be built in, so it might be broken. Even if not, that thing looks seriously stout. Condition, condition, condition. It looks like there there could be some serious bragging rights, if you are into that sort of thing. Just be ready to have the only KGAP-70 on your block, so to speak, so no spare parts, fixing knowledge, etc.
