Clausing 8535. Always wanted a mill, and now I have one. It's a bit of a project, needing reassembly after taking it apart to move. And the motor needs sorting. Sale came with three different motors, so need to study pros and cons of each option, and figure out which way I want to go. 220V single phase would likely be best, given my garage power supply. There is a motor controller that came with the kit, so need to get my mind around all that.

And of course, I need to sort out the garage. It's a mess. My lathe project isn't done yet, and then I go and buy a mill. That's how we roll, sometimes, though.

I've run my Bridgeport on a buzz box for nearly 20 years. Keep meaning to tie it into my RPC, but that would require effort 'n stuff
