Vague Cinci mill question
Vague advertisement, vague question...
There's a mill in range which is described as a Cincinnati horizontal/vertical. Manual mill that's being shifted due to CNC replacement, supposed to be in good shape, price seems reasonable. Without having any idea what model it might be, precisely (until Monday, anyway), my vague question is whether a Cincinnati with a vertical head (sounds like it might be an optional head on a horizontal mill, but I'm not sure of that) is likely to be a good bet - ie, it's not a Bridgeport, and everybody loves a Bridgeport - is that likely to mean it's not versatile, or tooling is hard to come by, or... I already talked myself out of a huge, ancient, purely horizontal mill at a bargain basement price. -- Cats, Coffee, Chocolate...vices to live by |
