I have a 1940's Diamond M22 mill in the back of the shop that I'd like to sell, think "Bridgeport" but at 2/3 scale. Wouldn't make sense for any machine shop, but for a collector or hobbyist it would be cool. Looking for $200 or so, it's strapped to a pallet right now. I think I have a rotary table I'd let go for another $50.

This is intriguing. Got pictures? Location? What does it need for power?

I’ll take the rotary table if it’s a small’ish one around 6” or so and in usable shape.

I dont have the space or use for it, but I know a couple people who may be interested. I will reach out. Is it functional?
The vertical portion of the mill is, I think the horizontal is missing the shaft. The power cords for the motors are frayed, I bought new ones but haven't installed them.

I'll climb up in the mezzanine later and take a look, but believe it's larger than that.

Edit: 8" diameter once I unearthed it.

Also found around 20-25 mill bits, most of which are still new, from my old Bridgeport. How about $75 for the lot.

Sounds good to me. I work in Torrance, any chance I can run down to HB around lunchtime one day next week and grab it?
