Finally convinced my pops on letting me have my grandfathers mid 50's Bridgeport matching mill and lathe. It's been collecting dust in his garage for a while. Got some more work done put a radius on the the rails and hit the drill press and drilled all the mounting holes. Now to make some motor plates feet and a pump brace
