OK, that is a cool little machine. Cool Cool Cool
I would love to have one of those. It looks like a very nicely done restoration too. Awesome. Smiley-eatdrink004

So I suppose you could say that that is "Bob's Barker" Rotfl

I love those little guys they are great little machines perfect for cutting key ways or splines and doing all the little jobs that you would otherwise need a Cincinnati or similar milling machine to do, instead you could have a much cheaper Shaper for the making of large flat surfaces and one of these little mills for the detail work.

Best Regards

Bob, that IS a neat little mill, could we get a pic of the rear showing the drive from the motor?

BTW, I was able to click on the pic, open in windows picture viewer and expand it greatly retaining the crispness and clarity.
Other times I've only gotten blurry images with expansion, even pics with higher pixel count.
Can anyone 'splain that for me?

That's a very nice looking Mill Bob! I could certainly make space for something like that.

There was a chap years ago on the machine builders network (Conrod was his handle) who made a horizontal mill out of a 4 cylinder engine block. Steve will probably remember, or should but you can never tell these days. The spindle was mounted in one of the bores and I believe the top arm as well. Used connecting rods from an engine the end spindle support. Was a pretty neat machine.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
