Van Norman mill

[novaron]

Hi,
Picked up this old Van Norman model 0 mill. I was told it might be circa 1915, but can not find any info on the web. If anyone has some information it would be much appreciated.

Yea, looks pretty old. Used to have a #12, sold it when I found a 1RQ-28. There's a Yahoo group also http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vannorman/ might ask there.
HTH, Jim

After I finish up a few projects, I'm planning on diving in on how to use it...

I don't think so. For now I just want to get some experience with it.
