Free Bridgeport Style Knee Mill (SF Bay Area)

[Cory]

Hi all,

We have a full size knee mill that we are looking to get rid of. It is made by Millport and is essentially a slightly smaller clone of a Bridgeport Series I. It has 30"x12" XY travel with a 9"x42" table, DRO on X and Y, and power feed on X. I believe it is wired for 220 3 phase, but I can check and confirm.

It does need some work. It is currently fully functional, however there is a large amount of play in the saddle. If you pull on one corner of the table you can see it move a noticeable amount.

This machine has been taking up space and is not used enough for us to justify keeping it, or putting in the time to fix the above problem. If you have anyone on your team who is familiar with mills, I am guessing replacing the gibs would solve the problem. It also wouldn't surprise me if the leadscrew nut needs some work.

We would like to get it out of our facility ASAP, as it is taking up space we will need once build season starts. If you are interested in the machine, send me a PM. We have the ability to load it onto a truck for you, but you will need to secure it and handle everything from there. What you see in the picture is what you'll get-we don't have any accessories or tooling along with the machine.
