Now we have milling machines that need homes..and they are being
bought for a couple thousand and they will do a very nice job of

Well... except for lack of an X/Y feed (which could be remedied) I think I
like my Solberga better than a Clausing.

There is ONE thing about it I don't like better, but I'll live with it (the
'special' motor being built into the box, rather than using a standard-
frame motor.

I loved the Clausing ,but I scored an Arbota Maskiner, a small radial
arm drill press. The Clausing had to head on down the road.
