couple of crap pics taken tonight in bad light [ my excuse ]
OK lathe first, It's a TOS 14 x 40 pretty standard machine about 12 / 14 years old from new but still deadly accurate.
Next the mill. This is a Bligeport clone [ Chinese Bridgeport ] but one size up on a standard Bridgy. 10 x 54 hardened table and in built power to the knee, not an align unit.
Box ways on the knee and all turcite slides.
This is the one I want to fit the riser to but it stands 7'4" as it is to top of the motor so it's a big bugger.
Had it about 3 weeks and not finished shaking it down yet but it is workable.
