Very strange that is has no identification plate anywhere.
I haven't seen any older machines that were China stuff.

It appears to be British as far as I can tell by the Withworth fasteners on it.
Got it wired up with a 1HP motor and VFD.
Now it's torn apart waiting for some new Acme nuts for the cross feeds.

Got it all rebuilt with new lead screws and put on a power feed to boot.

After some looking on line,I believe the mill to be a Marlow.

Already to make some chips!

For some reason the forum format doesn't like my pictures and puts them in sideways.

Takes me back to shop class. What a nice tool to have.

Where did you get the new lead screws. I priced them years ago and the price was through the roof. I use my mill very very little little so the extra expense as not worth it.

Roton products. In the USA.

I bought acme thread and barrel nuts, machined to fit.

Thanks for the info Mike. I am planing on selling my mill in the near future as well as several other machines so I will give them a shot on a price. Not a great deal of play but it has some to improve on.
