Potential purchase of a Mill

[Miki Mokrysz]

Hi York Hackspacers

We're evaluating the purchase of a second-hand milling machine. These are useful for cutting 2D and 3D features in various materials (steel, aluminium, plastic, etc.) Right now the space only has the pantograph, which while lovely is a bit more of an engraving tool than a proper milling machine.

On Discord, there's been quite a bit of interest in us acquiring this machine. The machine is being sold for £650 and comes with a 2-axis DRO, a rotary table, etc. Some rust but hopefully not a big deal for us.

If you'd like to discuss the purchase, indicate your enthusiasm, or potentially contribute then respond to this email or on Discord. I've included images of the mill below.

Thanks,

Miki Mokrysz
