What Did You Buy Today?

[Papa Charlie]

So I took off work today and did a little road trip and this thing jumped up on the trailer and followed me home
It’s a VanNorman milling machine with universal head it came with a bunch of Arbor supports and I think four different arbors support for horizontal milling also has a DRO on all three axis and this thing was pretty heavy !!!! But my winch pulled it right up the ramps and on the trailer pretty easily
If anyone would know what this thing might weigh I would love to know cause there is not much info out there on the internet the model number is 3R-10 or that’s what the plate says

Don't know how accurate this is, but it is the right Model Number. They are claiming the weight is 8,750 lbs.

That looks like a really nice unit. Congrats.

I’m gonna guess your mill is the one I saw a Craigslist? And it was a steal?

That is a possibility where your location is because I do travel for a good deal !!! And I’m very fortunate to have a way to move this big machine and load and unload them with my forklift

I have pulled a lot of heavy stuff on my trailer but this mill is definitely the heaviest I could tell it was back there that’s for sure it was all my F-250 wanted that was for sure

It looked like you were pushing the limit of that trailer as well. I assume it is either a 7K or 14K GVWR, I hope the latter as the trialer was probably 2500-3500 lb alone.
As for the truck, it's a Ford, it will handle it.

Lol yes she did handle it it’s a 1996 F-250 with the 7.3 liter power stroke and it has a few upgrades done to it !!! So she has a lot of power just not the fastest truck out there but slow and steady wins the race as they say now the trailer has 7k axles under it it’s rated for 14k maybe a little bit more it pulled it just fine on the flat ground but then hills in P.A. are Brutal !!!!!

Here’s the rest of the stuff all the horizontal Arbor supports and arbors that I got with it to do some horizontal milling I’m thinking I should be set with all this stuff

I have a 2003 F-350 4 Door, 4x4, Dually with the 7.3 liter Power Stroke in it. Looked hard to find this one. I love my truck. As you say, they are not fast and having the duals, I have 4.11 rear end, so it won't win any races. But she will pull just about anything I put behind me.
