Score =)

There are weight limits four Bridgys. 750# I THINK for J head models. I don't know for round ram models. Might be less.
 
What a deal! How much travel does it have on the Y ? 1/2" ??? LOL. Might be better calling around to some local machine shops or used machine dealers and trade it for a smaller one plus some tooling, will have more use and travel.... And the guys are right, better give it a shot of Vactra 2 oil or if your using grease, that much weight might cause the ways to wear. I was thinking it's so heavy you don't need to clamp it down...lol.....and when you move the table to the far left or right don't lean on the table it might turn over...lol...
 
I have been using oil on it, not grease. The y travel is not as limited as the x travel :)). I would probably rather have a smaller unit but I am cutting some pretty large round blanks, almost 19" diameter. I'll post some pics of the finished product, once I get that far...next day or two. It will give a good idea as to why I need something so large. Next step will be to add another mill, a bit bigger and maybe cnc, depends on what craigslist has to offer.:thinking:
 
I wouldn't crank the mill table to the right or left too far. It might tip over!!!!:headache:
 
Ok, have one almost done so I'm tossing up a pick to give you an idea of what I have been working on with this behemoth.

lol, they are actually about 21" tall and with a 18 and 3/4 " diameter. They are for a designer client that I just picked up to go into his high end designer store. Once I am finished with this pair of end tables, I will be moving on to a unique set of table lamps.
