FS -- Wells-Index 747 mill, Chicagoland
I just called Wells-Index. The mill was made in 1975 (so it is newer than me), it weighs 2,600 lbs, and has a 1.5 HP variable speed head. The spindle taper is R8, which is a big relief. You'll find a comparable Bridgeport is nearly 1000 lbs. lighter. You think that iron is going to waste? Now, I don't use R8 any more, too wimpy. Strictly a taper 40 guy here. Karl |
