King PDM-30 mill drill, $2650

Nice looking Drill/Mill. Looks a lot like mine except much newer, smaller table, better motor setup. Although it's Calgary, I'm still surprised at what he wants for it though. With some minor changes, mine might be worth more than I thought.

Someday I'd like to figure out exactly what mine is!
 
There's a Kingston in Calgary? ;)

My goof. I'd fix it, but it's good for a laugh on me.

No slightest idea how I got that idea.

Makes the price even more surprising though.

Personally, I think its a very nice mill. Much bigger than most realize. Yes, there are issues with the round column but it can still do great work as long as one knows the head can't be moved up and down without another setup. If mine had normal x&y axis graduations, I'd prolly still be using it and still be very happy. I keep thinking about fixing it and then realize I won't live long enough to actually finish the job.
