OH MY HECK!!!! Finished the BP project and I FORGOT just how quiet a beautiful Bridgeport can be! It is absolutely silent!
They are so wonderfully designed and crafted, a real joy to work on because EVERYTHING JUST FITS!! The tolerances are so precise for each component...slip fit, press fit...and it mostly only goes together one way.
I've gotten so fed up with cheap imitation crap trying to mirror solid American made machines, this project just made me smile.
