My new toy just arrived.
Adcock & Shipley 1ES, vertical/horizontal mill - Bridgeport, with auto quill
Got it from a retired machinist. Unfortunately as the old story goes... grease where oil should be, quill is stuck/ seized, etc. But in perfect condition, so can not see anything that would prevent it from being an amazing addition to my humble workshop.
Starting the refurb with bringing the headstock back to life.
Stay tuned for the vids on YT.
