Oh well, worth a look. Craigslist searches are nice that they are relatively local. The down side, if your local isn't suited for the search you won't find much. Around here there usually are a few decent things to look at. https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/hvo/5507436260.html

Probably babbit spindle bearings to boot. Nope. Theres a 100+ yo Porter right here in town, 16x72 or such, sitting out in the weather for at least 3 years that I know of. Babbit bearings with a need for about 1/8 inch in shim washers to take up the end play. Motor apparently failed and thrown away (or sold) at some point in the dustbin of history. $500. He says the scrap iron is worth that but if so, why hasn't he recycled it? But while it all still moves, just the screws to ball screw it would probably be north of $1500. And its as much too big for me as this 7x12 is too small. > Dave Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
