Folks,
I Have just been a reader here for a few years and have the oppritunity to purchase a B & S #3 Horizontal mill. It appears to be in very good shape. It is presently under power and all the feeds and speeds work well. It also has the vertical head attachment on it. #50 taper spindles of various sizes are included along with one arbor (1.25 inch I think) This is a big (by my standards)machine. The owner says ~6000lbs. Is that pretty close? Does this model machine have any bad tendencies? This is a much bigger machine than what I need but I have the space and ability to move it (I THINK) Does anyone have any thoughts? Also, Is there anywhere to hunt for an operating manual for this? Thanks in advance for your inputs! BTW asking $ is $500
Thanks,
Andy
