Vertical miller for sale - any offers

[Austin in the Shed]

Not only an incredibly useful piece if equipment in any workshop, the fact that it comes complete with a very nice Abwood vice it is  very good value indeed.
Try and get any Abwood vice at a reasonable price these days -they are like hen's teeth.
I wouldn't be without my ZX25 mill/drill along with my lathe, although a Myford has its limitations when doing Automotive work.

I started off with an ML 7 a long time ago,vertical slide for limited milling work but have to say everything was hard work,too small a table too little slide travel etc too small a spindle bore.Bought a Super 7. Better tailstock for drilling,countershaft clutch and fitted a second hand gearbox and taper turning attachment from another super 7 I bought so in the end as good as a Myford could get.
I do admire those Old model engineers who made superb models on them,I spoke to one who'd machined a 3" traction engine cylinder on one.
However if I was going to advise someone looking to buy a lathe I'd say maybe a Boxford for most small /medium work,a bit bigger,heavier and capable of more useful? Work.
I still have my Super 7 and use it for certain jobs,lathes are like lawnmowers,You can't get one that does everything.
