But check the ceiling height it needs too, that looks to be in excess of the usual 96" tall. I'd probably be 5 or 6"" or so thru the ceiling in my garage. With 3 containers of tooling, heck of a deal. If I had room for it...
Freight would likely be substantial. I wonder what the catch is? Dead bandit maybe? At its age, going on 35 years, the electrolytics in the various psu's are likely way overdue for new ones. Putting linuxcnc on it would probably be a huge improvement. The huge covers on the YZ drives might hide some ills. OSHA must have objected to the open drive trains & made the original buyer cover them? The bed looks like it has more y travel than the width of the bed, Looks like chromed ways too. But I'd for sure have to build more room. Probably by demolishing the back deck, which needs to go anyway, no foundation under it and sagging 6" in the middle. That would take some long term planning, for a guy that doesn't even buy green banannas? :) > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
