I posted earlier about this Enco mill I found on Craigslist in my area for $4200. At first I thought it was the 9x39 but after going and looking at it the other day I found out it is a 9x49. It was clean and in pristine condition. Everything works on it and it has a s100 Acu-Rite 2 axis dro and a decent 6" vise. little background on the mill. The seller told me they bought it new for there bussiness in 06 for making custom tooling for the military. When the economy tanked in 08 they switch operations and started making covers for aircraft still for the military. He said they only used it as a drill press for drilling 1/8 holes in spring steel for the the templates. When I looked at the mill the stops were set at center so you couldn't move the table. Anyway member AaronD said he recognized it from eBay where it was listed for $3900. I was going to call the seller and make an offer of $3500 but drug around and didn't. I wasn't sure if I really need a big knee mill. Well today I get a text from the seller and they have to be out of there old warehouse and needed it gone and asked if I would be interested at $2500. Well I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story.
