Found an old Leblond and Bridgeport.

Found these old machines. Lathe seems to be in excellent shape. I think the paint may be original. The mill is pretty rough though. I'm going to fix em up. Traded two Honda trail 70s for them.

Hi @rjredline,

First, Welcome to the site.
It looks like you know a good name machine when you see it!

Are those pictures from the previous owners of those machines?
If so, it looks like the lathe hasn't been used in a while (piled with crap) and the mill looks like it lived in a production environment.

There are many people here with similar or identical machines. So ask anything you need......someone likely has the answer.

Thank you for the welcome. They were both in a cargo container for years. The pic of the mill is after I drug it out and cleaned it up some. The lathe pic is in the container.
This seems like an awesome site.

You're going to love the Regal. It turns a little slow, but it's a very user friendly machine.

The mill looks like it's missing the x-axis screw including the crank handles.
