It certainly took a hernia-inducing effort to get in and out of the car, but I'm well pleased with my latest sneak in...   Smiley-nono

Looks like a Mark 1 model.  Nice size for a home workshop.

Hi Mike - yep, it is indeed a Mark 1 and includes the original vice and a whole bunch of tooling.   Thumbsup

Nice find. Thumbsup

Any restoration work in the plans, or will you just clean it up and use it?

Hi Tom,

I've begun a partial strip-down of the mill with the intention of giving it some TLC, but as a newbie I just want to get on and use it.  
Thank you for your interest.

Rick.
