Oh believe me, I understand. Ole Joe in Louisiana has had me hounding him for some of his old iron and even for his shop made tools....I think I made him a better offer than you made me. At least I offered him a few bucks and some cold beer. Cheapskate.

You got me there brother! Cheapskate is so harsh..... how about Thrifty? Ahhh, I give! Just call me Cheap Ba%tard. I'll own it.

Easy....she's sensitive about her age and weight...870lbs....she's big boned.

That's funny! Ill help you name your Southbend but, I'm gonna have to get to know her for awhile first. I'll PM you my shipping address.

That Airco girl has some gravity to her but, I bet she carries it well.

Haven't found the right old iron for a mill yet.

[Ironken]

Great advice.<br />
<br />
I've seen that brand in action. Was looking at an old Bridgeport at a fab shop a few hours from here...that's where I bought Helga....they were selling the Bridgeport because it was too big for they needed it for and went with that PM stuff. Said they get better support from the salesman on their stuff. <br />
<br />
I'm glad grizzly made it right with you. That's a lot of money to spend and have a vibration problem. What did it end up being?

The vibration was in the pulley (which has a balanced, weighted sheave) and the spline shaft.

You refer to a "Helga"......is that your new mill? A Bridgeport by chance? ****, I'm jelous!

PM does stand behind what they sell with one of the best warrantys in the Chicom machine world...3yrs.
