Well actually Benny did, First one was when I was showing him my tapping head that Paul gave me , He noticed right away that it had a morris taper to R8 adapter, :high5: A big plus as now I can use my drill chuck on my mill. I actually noticed it before but it never really turned on any light bulbs. I had to make a wedge tool to knock it out. Thanks again Paul.
The other discovery was a tag on my mill on the cradle just below the table. Benny asked what that tag that said "Tibot" on it was (I think he was hoping I had a frankenport) A closer look and the fine print said "Hard Chrome Ways" another BONUS. A while back while the mill was still at Benny's house I was looking at the ways and asked him if they were Chrome because they looked rather shiny, he said "No that shiny just means it's wore":nono: I'm hoping the other one has them too, I would think that adds a little resale value?????:headscratch::shrugs:
