    Mill and lathe

    I was wandering if anyone has or knows someone who has a solidworks model of a mill and a lathe?

    Thanks in advance

    Maybe I should clarify. I am needing to do a rendering of our proposed shop and they want to show some of the machinery that we have. The models don't have to be very detailed.
    Any help would be great.

    Thank you.

    you know the footprints of your machines, if you know solidworks it should only take 30 minutes or so to whip out a model with basic details. I'm not aware of any existing models like that on the web anywhere.
