Hi Guys,

Would anyone know the approximate weight of a Bridgeport J-Head with a 9x32"
table?

Does this have a dovetail ram or the older round ram? Does it have the
12" Y travel, or the ~9" travel of the old, smaller knee?

The 9 x 32" sounds like the old, pre 1950's round ram, short knee
machine. That's why I was throwing out about 1500 Lbs. It seems
each update of the machine added significant weight. Certainly the
bigger knee added a lot of weight.
