I picked up a Rockwell vertical mill, Mod. 21-100 S/N. DX993. Bought a Phase converter from phase- o -matic to convert my dryer 230v,20amp single phase to 3 phase power to run this bad boy. Electrician did the connection for me last week.
Runs like a champ but the tables need going over they are dirty and want some lube. Before I use it, I wanted to calibrate it and have someone with more knowledge have a look and maybe share some wisdom before I get knee deep into playing with it.
It will need a Brush cap for the variable power feed motor, came off and lost in transport, before i can use that part of it. It's a GE Mod. 5P68MA132T 115v Motor. I will be calling general tool and supply in Sunland this week to see if I can buy one. If someone knows a vendor that might have one that would be help full
It resides in Santa Clarita currently. If you or someone you know can help with calibration and a few tips to get me started I'm willing to compensate You/them with green backs or barter.
I downloaded the army manual for it. Which has already been a big help. Here is a good look at the mill and a little about its history. scroll down a page for the pic.
