Just landed this whale...$200.00 courtesy of craigslist. 21" looks like it will barely fit but I needed it to cut some 18" aluminum round stock...1-1/2" thick to make some tables for a designer.

Nice score! What kind of mill do you have.

Do you have any way to weigh it? I say, let's start a pool. My guess is 875lbs.

 

[cvz6977]

It weighed in at 540 pounds...wasn't sure the old mill would take it, but, it's a champ and is working well. Just did a light clan up on it and oiled it up...ready to start working.

That is a biggun, but if it fits its all good.
You might say, you scored BIG!:yikes:

lol, now that I have given it a workout and a lot of oil, it works great and is making my current project a breeze. I think I will be leaving it on for the foreseeable future as I can mount my vise to it without issue. Need to make a handle for it after I'm done with the current job. Using a wrench to turn it right now :thinking:
