    Small Facemill

    I think they were selling the commonly available config. and changed at some point, maybe they got a better deal from their supplier? If they’ve changed back because of customer feedback (ref. what looks like pockets in @kstrauss ’s photo) then that might be an explanation rather than trying to...

    Small Facemill

    The problem is that not all “APKT11T3” inserts are the same. The commonly available inserts you refer to would not fit on the Accusize tool. The photos showed (still show) the commonly available inserts BUT the inserts that came with it were not the same as in the photo, that’s why it went...

    Oh, wow! Nope, nothing like that just a couple of left front wheel bearings from the other half’s Audi. Last going off it was front end bushings, nothing worth saving. Come to think of it, most of my “special service tools” are from fixing that thing….. D :cool:

    Myford Super7 Bedford, NS

    Already $972. It’s a Super 7 with a quick change gearbox but not new enough to have the power cross slide. One chuck, 4 way tool post and a keyless chuck but no sign of other accessories. Casters off something else. Would be a good quality entry tool. I already have my S7 but it’s almost...
