    Power feed X-Y works well. Z back to front works but needs a little love. $3250.00 ONO any reasonable price considered.

    Hi Guys,

    The DELTA is a Bridgeport style mill. Not much different. But not at that price ! The true Bridgeport machines sell based on their name, a bit like Myford lathes.

    I'm thinking about making some enquiries although at that price I'm sure they have been bombarded. Would it be a crime to buy sight unseen?

    If you have the folded green stuff ready then just get there and grab it. Call and tell the seller you are coming over with cash

    Sight unseen: If it is at a reputable machinery store then maybe.

    If its a private seller then a big NO. They maybe showing you old photos and the mill may be damaged. You can ask for a Facetime or Whatsapp video call and a quick walk around the machine.
