Rockwell Vert Mill Question

Dec 20, 2006 0 Replies

Hello:



I have a Rockwell Vertical Mill, Model, a mid sized knee-type mill, circa



1963 or so. Sort of a baby J-head Bridgeport. It doesn't have a specific model number on any data plate or even in the maintenance manual.

My question is to anyone having a similar machine: are there any improvements to the spindle brake? Mine uses a friction pad/shoe arrangement that does not lock the solidly lock the spindle. Any ideas?



Thanks in advance!!
