I picked up a really old Vertical Milling Machine.Probably mid 1940's.
Its a U.S. Machines made in Cincinatti Oh.(later became Burke Machines) Its actually in very good shape.I been ordering tooling and hope to be cutting my own case's and heads with it pretty soon.Has power feed quill and table power feed.Its beast.I had to rent a Bobcat Skid loader to load and unload it and push it into the corner in the shop.
