New toy!

[cruzer75]

We are shutting down a plant and were going to scrap the machine shop (not much left but a couple bridgeports!! I told the director I would give him scrap price for one of the bridgeports....and it was mine! It is 3phase so will require a converter which I am working on building. Need to find a 3phase motor 1+hp.

DRO, power x and z, collets and as much tooling I could collect out of the scrap bins... plan is to clean it up and use it! [emoji51]
