Default Wanted: Rockwell vertical milling machine (knee type)

Manuf'd from the 50's thru the 70's I think. I believe the table size is
6x24". Usually 120/220 convertible motor. Let me know condition and price
and location. This is for a home shop. If you want a small Mill/Drill by Jet
can arrange exchange plus some cash.

I have a clean Rockwell horizontal complete with arbor and a few
cutters. It has had a Bridgeport M-head adapted to the overarm so you
would have the best of both worlds. It has power feed on the table, a
set of collets for the B'port head and can be bought in SoCal for
$2000. Leigh at MarMachine (949) 645-7601

I've got one in Wisconsin, contact me by email. Wasn't really considering
selling it but I do have another mill and haven't used this one much.

I did, but don't you have the same mill already, based on last week's
thread?

I already have a rockwell combo mill. (combined horizontal and vertical)
It such a PIA to remove the vertical head and install the overarm,
that I can't use the horizontal mill without a lot of pain and fustration.
So I really want one vertical and one horizontal mill.
Perhaps I should let someone else get your vertical mill and I could
find a horizontal.
