Gday from Port Macquarie
Long time lurker and member, I have a C10 Holbrook (6X20 with a 9" bed width and 1500kg+ ex AWA and with its tooling cabinet, circa 1956) also a clapped out Bridgeport and a Victor 400 x1000 lathe.
Really love the in depth knowledge of the membership and look forward to being a useful contributor.

BridgePort Mill
Hi Kryn, the mill came out of a ballustrading shop so has holes cuts in the tableague, has been greased and just about every part of the down feed trashed, saying that it has minimal wear on the leads crews and nuts. I didnt mention in my intro an ETA T&C that is in the style of a Clarkson and rather rare that is being refurbished and a manual H&F surface grinder.
Cheers Mike.
