If one were "hypothetically" looking (thinking) about a used Bridgeport mill (Series I), two questions come to mind:
1. Is this too big for model engines?
2. What are the things to check while looking (i.e. how would one know if it's worth buying?) No, I'm not interested in rebuilding the top end, spindle, bottom end or any end. I'm not going to scrape the ways. A working mill, that will perform accurately is the criteria. If it were your money, what would you look for.
Thanks
