Jon,

It has a dovetail ram. It originally had an M Head which has been replaced
with a J Head.

Thanks for the help.

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.
