Good Morning All,
I know this will be a tough question to answer but looking for opinion. I have come across a Cincinnati 0-8 vertical production mill in (barely) serviceable condition, needing some serious TLC. For example, the wheel on the left of the heads spins several rotations in one direction then stops, then i can spine it in the other direction until it stops. So a pin or lock for the nut is out of it. the bed will not move as it feels like gears are engaged, but it could be stuck due to sitting for some time.
It has been converted to 110v (losing the original pulley on the motor) but does spin as does the spindle. For obvious reasons i didn't run it long.
What kind of asking price is reasonable for a fixer upper such as this? i do not have picture, SN or other details.
Thank you in advance for any information you can provide
