    That’s one thing I’ve built a lot of. See my web site. I have one unfinished engine on the living room floor because I’ve been building boilers and getting the Bridgeport in and setup.
    What are you looking for? Railroad or marine or stationary. Mostly I’ve built Marine and some small stationary engines. I wanted the Bridgeport for smaller models as my other Mill is an ARNO universal 40 taper Mill and only 1000 RPM’s. I built a small one inch four jaw chuck for a model Southbend lathe. It was a ***** doing 1/8 key slots with only 1000 RPM’s I want to start building more models, The longer I keep the other stuff the heavier they seem to get.
