I found an Enco 8x36 mill for $2600. I talked to the seller and he is willing to come down to $2300. Original owner, circa 1994, great shape, comes with power X feed, Chinese vice and a few R8 collets. etc. Here are the pics... what do you guys think?
My gut feeling is it is a good deal... and a good size for my shop. I don't have room for a full size mill.
Enco 100-1525 = Grizzly G6760 = Jet JVM-836. Parts are said to be interchangeable.
Here are the Jet 836 specs... the Enco "Might" be 10 speed but might be 5 speed. Enco weight is reported to be 1600lbs - 1800lbs.
