Thanks for the compliments! The mill has a factory "slow speed" countershaft with 5-step sheaves, and came with lever feeds on all axes. Shortly after buying it , the vertical micrometer feed was purchased, the other 2 feeds much later. I bought it at a company sale with 2 arbors and about 25 cutters for a ridiculously low price, covered with coolant sludge and a very little rust on the overarm and table. I was told that it had about 100 hours of use, but it wasn't what the company wanted. "Restoration" was about 3-4 hours of rags, kerosene, and 4-0 steel wool. It IS a stout little machine as befits a production tool, and AFAIK, it's still in production and parts are available.
Regards,
Bob
