but if i had the only thing i need to get it i would have ran out the door screaming like a girl in excitement
 
Well I happened to be passing through that way Thursday morning and contacted the seller to see if I could take a look but he is off to work by 6:30am and I couldn't make it up there that early. I won't be back until after Sunday, I suspect it will be sold by then, I guess this one is not going to happen for me.
 
Still for sale - that is surprisingly cheap - I will have a B-P for sale in few days to a week but more in the 4k range.
 
Anyone here pick up that machine (ad is gone)? Ran into a fellow in that region before that had BP's for sale and called them 'project machines'...but then admitted that he serviced said machines for a living and appears he has already figured out they were not worth rebuilding.

I had inquired about it and he said he had a buyer coming over that night to look and if the interested party didn't take it, then he would let me know. I never heard from him again. The seller told me it was in average condition for its age.

I was luck enough to grab this mill. It's in decent condition, perfect for the kind of stuff I plan to use it for. I wired it up to a VFD, picked up a collet set and some end mills and made a few cuts. Seems to work well. Table has its fair share of nicks and drill marks
