Currently I've got a Standard Modern 2000 series with 13" swing. Been a great machine, rebuilt it a few years back. Was a high-school machine that must have had an issue very early on with the electrics that they never bothered to fix, as the bed is almost perfect, but to motor was smoked.

Your quite right, but I may have noticed then! lol. :rolleyes:

So... I screwed up.....Forgot about the mast on the Towmotor.... Anyone know where to buy a garage door track/rail??? At least it's in the shop, and I can hook up power this week. The vise sure is a beast. The machine also came with 2 arbours and a few other bits and pieces including and...

So we used a backhoe to get it off the trailer, once in the shop I could half lift/slide it with the forklift. The hydraulics on the forklift are set up so that as soon as the tail lifts, the bypass pops. I could crank it up, but its old and I don't want to wreck anything....more.... (you'll see...

So because I have issues around self control, I have another Brown and Sharpe #2 Light Type horizontal mill. This one however is a plain, not a universal. I've noticed that this must have been the "budget" end of the spectrum ( not that anything that came from B&S was ever cheap!) as it doesn't...

I wish you the best of luck. My friend had the chance to get one for a song a few years ago, but we couldn't arrange a way to lift it out of this fellows garage, so it went for scrap..... They are beautiful machines.

Thank you! I have it's brother, a #2 Light universal. They were both in the same factory at around the same time based on an equipment tag. So it will be neat to reunite them.

So I came across this old lathe, its a Prentice Brothers lathe. Seems to be 20-30's era. Good gear box has been added. has 4 chucks, and a really neat taper attachment. 13"swing, 60" bed. Nothing seems to worn, and when I fired it up, it was all working as it should be. Quick change...

I didn't build this one myself, but it has been heavily modified. I originally had built a 5Hp, 600v RPC (single phase transformer stepping up the 240 to 600 before the RPC, and all controlled by an arduino), but this came up on kijiji and was twice the HP of what I had. So I modified this to...
