I just keep finding the old machines!!!!!
i 'm just on a roll !!!
searching earlier in the week i saw an ad on CL for an atlas horizontal mill
i replied to the add and offered a little less than asking price and he accepted!!!
she's in pretty good shape a little cracking of the Zamak handles is evident.
she runs really quietly and operates smoothly under power.
the knee is surprisingly smooth and rigid for a little mill.
i know i'm going to have a blast getting to know her!!!
may i introduce you to Gertrude, my first horizontal mill.
she came with all kinds of cool stuff including a couple more than a dozen cutters and an original Atlas catalog no. M52 and a price sheet from August 1955 when the mill was originally purchased, i'm the second owner.
My mill sold originally in 1955 for $466.70!! some pictures for the interested!
thanks for reading, i welcome questions and comments!
an original 1955 Atlas Toolstand came with the unit!!!!!
