I have been looking for years for a little Mikron F75 mill to accompany my Mikron T90 lathe.
Those mills are quite rare and usually very high priced (at least above my limit).
A few weeks ago I found this little one on Ebay UK:
It looked desolate and grimy, but a lot of elbow grease gave me a reasonable result:
I still have to make a new motor mount, but it is looking a lot better than when I bought it.
There is a vertical head in the Mikron catalog, but since they went out of business in the sixties I doubt if I will find one in the near future.
I guess I will have to make my own.
Regards,
Jan
