Hi all,
At the moment i have a Sieg SX2L mill.
Quite small and it needs a lot of work and adjustments to get it within spec.
I have the opportunity to buy a Clausing 8250 mill.
Pictures are being e mailed to me tonight and i will then know the condition of the mill.
At the moment it is running on a VFD 220V single phase.
A full set of MT2 collets and a swivel base vice.
Without knowing the condition of the mill...
I was looking for any input from owners of the same mill.
Good and bad.
What to look for iwhen i go and have a look at it.
To me it looks like a step in the right direction as it looks like a very solid and stable machine.
Possibly more versatile that what i have now.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Andrew
