Acra mill?

Is anyone familiar with Acra mills? One popped up for sale local ish and I’m curious about it.

Here’s a link to it.

They seem to have good reviews on other forums, but I have no direct experience with them. mind you this one as stated is 20yrs old

Is that surface rust?

@Marknb I commented over in the "Member Spotted Thread". If it's as advertised, it looks like a good deal.

If you're thinking of a full size mill IMHO you should be looking at this one. Even if you're thinking about a mini-mill, considering the price vs. a BB mini-mill you get a lot more machine with this one and you can run it on a VFD from single phase power so it's ideal for a non-industrial shop.

My opinion, YMMV!

Says in the ad it’s packing grease

Looks to have sold.

It was never going to last long at that price!

Trivia: It was about 10 minutes drive from where I bought my First, probably the same dealer sold both.
