Bridgeport Mill Service and Repair in California?

[wonder squirrel]

Do any of you guys know of any service/ repair centers in California for Series 1 Bridgeport? Alot of searching online has turned up pretty much nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What part of California? I recently had a technician from Machinery Sales Co. in City of Industry (near Los Angeles) come out for a little checkup on my Series I Rigid Ram. If you are LA local, their phone number is (626) 581-9211. I got their contact info by emailing Hardinge through their website and asking for a local to me authorized repair agent. This is who they recommended.

I'm about 150 miles north of the L.A. area and about 250 south of the San Francisco area.

I'll have to try eailing the comany like you did and see if I can get somewhere that way. I've done a ton of online searching but have had no leads so far, thanks alot for the help

Yeah, I tried online for a few weeks and couldn't find anybody. I called the guy who upgraded my CNC computer (Centroid controller) and he was going to give me a name but he never came through. So I tried the Hardinge (Bridgeport) website and found an email contact there who gave me the info. I think I emailed my query through the Customer Support link on the main page. The email I received back came from Daniel_Gugino (at) hardinge.com. It took a couple of days to get a reply.

Hope you find someone.

I've sent a couple emails out through Hardinge and the mail address from you, hopefully something will turn up now, I'll update the thread incase anyone else out there has a need for the info I get aswell, thanks.

Well theres a guy name Goerge Bass at Classic Machine up in the bay area. He's about the best in the west-quite possibly the country. He flies his own plane to his appointments so LA isn't out of the question. He's out of Hayward, Ca. If you want his number just post in this thread & I'll post it for ya.

Just call Keith at Versitech in Corona California for BP Boss CNC, as well as standard BP parts, service calls, retrofits. and much more. I believe his # is (909? or 951?) 371-0900

George Bass is the guy for San Francisco area. I worked with George for many years when I was with Bridgeport. Highly skilled tech.. In Southern CA call MASCO, Machinery Sales Co, out of City of Industry. They were the Bridgeport distributor for many, many years, on and off. They have people they can put you in touch with for Southern CA and Arizona.
