    After telling my wife about my great find she promptly showed me the priority list and the lathe was not at the top lol. This will be a project for when I can get to it. Just couldn't pass this up.

    The mill came out of a fabrication shop. They said it had not been used excessively like 8 hrs a day or anything like that. They replaced the mill with a new one some years ago, so was sitting in a corner taking up space and they wanted it out. Based on the serial number it was built in 1977...
