Deal King has reawakened!
Found another machine on Craigslist and am going to look at it on friday
It's old, but its my brand, it seems to have been taken care of (they bought it when it was new) and the price is right.
I could use it to make billet triple clamps

These past couple week have been riddled with mechanical problems. We've gotten through most of them. It just takes cash.
Lots of trouble with a 5 cent o-ring failing. It allows coolant and hydraulic oil to mix which really sucks. Not to mention its a make the beast with two backsing oil mess to drain and refill things.
I swear I've had more hydraulic oil on the floor this past two weeks than anywhere else, like in the machine.
On the upside I think I have a real shot at a 12 month blanket order on some fairly easy parts. Monthly releases and about 40 hrs to machine everything.
New to me mill is coming to the shop 11/9
Lots to do between now and then.
Remove a wall, studs and insulate the remaining exterior walls, epoxy the floor, run electric for machine and outlets.
No problem
