This question would be best answered by some of the Bridgeport old-timers.
In some of my searches I discover new(old) attachmments for bridgeport/type machines.
When you look on ebay you see the standard Bridgeport type heads Right angle and
Quillmaster. The Volstro type accesories-angle head/rotary head/slotting head.
The speedline grinding/high speed attachment.
A new one I just recently discovered is/was the Bore/mate boring facing attachment.
All part of the hey-day of pre CNC milling.
It got me thinking I wonder if there are other sim,ilar types of gems that have
faded into history so to speak?
Is there some sort of web-site somewhere that deals with all things Bridgeport
so to speak and may have info relating to some of these things that may be less
known?
