Want milling machine

Jan 03, 2013 6 Replies

I'm looking to buy a Bridgeport in reasonable shape. Not a full blown CNC but a manual or EZ Trak.

Which part of the country do you live in?

The methodology of the left has always been:

  1. Lie
  2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
  3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
  4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
  5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
  6. Then everyone must conform to the lie

I live in Colorado but the machine would be for the middle of Minnesota. NW of the Twin Cities. How much do they seem to be going for now days? Say, one with digital and powerfeed.

What's the budget you have to work with.

Anywhere between $1500 to $4k for a georgians pretty one.

Ebay is a good place to start looking.

Thanks, that's about the prices I've been hearing. Actually a little lower than $4k for a pretty one.

Very nice guy, has a LOT of decent mills. Ask him about his Excellos as well.. A much nicer mill than the Bridgeport.

Also check with Iggy here.
