which is a Clausing 8520 knee mill. At least sort of - there have been some
modifications made that suggest it would need looking at before bidding, or
at least agreement that you could back out if it was not up to snuff.
Someone that looked at claimied that it does not appear as good in person as
the pictures would suggest.
Umm. The garage door spring on the quill return is a bit ugly.
But the real downside for this machiine is the speed range - if
you look the slowest speed is 1000 rpm.
As an example, the back gears in a brigeport go down to about
100 rpm. Without back gears this machine will not be too useful
for doing large stuff.
