Wow thanks guys. I didn't get emails that I had any responses. This was really nice to come back to. I have a friend who taught me the basics of machining, who I found out has an old Bridgeport. He converted it to a full cnc system, but it's been sitting on a trailer for 4 years. He said every 4 months, he'd go WD40 it, and replace the tarps around it. He Wants to open up his own shop, but can't do it in the next several years, so he's been saving it. But he offered to let it live in my shop, so it has a purpose. I'd get a rotary phase converter to give it 3ph. But the table is pretty rusty. He said he doesnt blame me if I don't want to mess with it at all. But dang... I'd only be paying for Transportation costs, de-rusting and the converter. He mentioned we should convert it back to manual, but doesn't have the hardware.
I need to be able to bore these atv cylinders! I've had 3 come into the shop in the last week that I've shipped off to get bored. And the shop called and let me know they had an accident, and ruined a cylinder. Ah! So they're paying to sleeve it, then re-bore it. What machines do you guys have that you're looking to sell?
