              Swwet Darin! I need to talk my boss into letting me have one of our old Bridgeport verticals that we never use. Love the compact size of this though. Got a link for it?

                  Several others also make similar machines... Grizzly, etc.

                  I used to work in a machine shop that had some large Bridgeport machines, including one set up with a hydraulic tracer table. I started out running parts on those machines, (production aerospace stuff) and eventually moved up to making the tooling and setting them up so the convicts... errr... I mean machinists that worked at this sweatshop could do the production runs instead...

                  It's been awhile, though, and of course, I still have to get this all setup and ready to go.
