So finally had chance to have a look over my M300 long bed. So had a look little bit of wear but nothing major certainly not enough for me to need go worry about. Given it a bit or a clean and plugged into phase converter, however, it runs in foward, but not reverse so needs looking at and unsure that the coolant pump works. Wiring all looks original in the cupboard. So just needs looking at where wiring isn't my specialty but will sort. Only other issue is the main carriage shaft has worn, but amazingly i might have the very machine to make one haha.
When I arrived to pickup couldn't get working so we came to a deal however when coming to load I opened the cabinet underneath and found all the chucks I could need which the lad was a bit surprised at but fair play let me keep them. It also came with a few interesting bits, firstly I believe this to be an original box that came with machine, well that's my guess. Came with steady but also a homemade one. Then it also had this interesting interchangeable tooling which to me looks like something off cnc but that's my very limited knowledge.
So onto my next thing I'm looking for a cheap and I do mean cheap sub 300 ideally. Dro for it if anyone has any recommendations.
I'm also looking to get some decent carbide tooling as know don't even bother with the cheap chinease crap had nothing but trouble with it in work nothing beats a decent brand. So if anyone can recommend any where to buy from.
