Cinci Vertical Mill

looked on ebay and found:

I used a Cinci number 3, not this model, but similar. It was the beefiest most rigid machine I have ever used. Made a Bridgeport look like a toy.

That thing will be a stone bitch to move if you don't have the right rigging equipment.

You can use BT50 ( with a metric thread drawbar) CAT50, NTMB50 in that machine. The NTMB50 are the cheapest and are available at auctions for about 10 bucks each or on ebay for about the same price depending on what type the holder it is. Dont worry about parts, there are a lot of parts machines lying around and several businesses that will supply you with any part for that machine. I would check the hydraulic rpm speed shifting on it and also all threee axis feeds and rapids. IF you get it make sure that the drive pulley is turning in the direction marked on the arrow on the pulley. Also, there is an interlock on the rear door so you cannot start the machine while the door is open. The button is kinda hard to see but it is there. It may be jumped out. That machine can remove metal in a hurry.
