I have the thread on the rusty B&S Mill with a vertical head.
I walked around a corner at the salvage yard into this sweet little radial drill, a rusty mess, but certainly savable, everything will still move.
I am not familiar with this brand, I will show the tags.
Carlton box table,
Hanford was not shy spending tax dollars on the cold war, this machine is of very high quality, I want to take a chance on it, 50 or so hours work, it would look pretty good! Morris Mor-Speed, pretty catchy.
Its hard to show scale sometimes in photos, I don't think this weighs much more then 4000lbs.
Just for fun on trying to show the size of something, look at these vises, they are 8" monsters, the front one is a Hollands, its just nearly unbelievable, the balls on the handle ends are hollow, probably to help prevent busting a knee cap, I think its over 400lbs.
The Parker behind is likely a hundred years old, Parker vises were very heavy, but the Hollands makes it look a little light, I am thinking around 300lbs. There are several 6" vises in the salvage yard, these make those look puny.
The Hollands, hollow balls on the ends of the massive handle.
The classic Parker, I have a 6 1/2" Parker, I thought it was big until I saw this monster.
You can hold a 6" vise in these.
