Well, it appears that I've gone to the dark side.
Purchased a machine tool which is younger than I am.
Clausing Colchester 15inch.
Super clean. I've been trying to close this deal since March.
Unloaded her this morning.
She hasn't been used for several years. But, was stored in a temperature controlled area.
Price was very appropriate. But, wish she came with a taper. Likely I'll try to make one.
My question: does anyone here have a manual or know of a link?
The real and critical need is to learn what oils/lube I need, and any other pointers or suggestions anyone might have on how I might best care and feed her.
And, or other maintenance items.
Yep, she looks kind of funny next to all the 1950s and older machines.
Thank you!!
