baby Conrik horizontal mill
Stoked to have taken posession of this Australian made Conrik baby horizontal mill. Seems to be in close to working condition, probably just needs a wipe down and some basic lubrication, belt replacing, basic maintenance. Seller tells me it was running recently.
I haven't ever seen such a small Aussie built mill. Have found very little about the Conrik machines, only about their lathes. Probably weighs 110-140 kg. Ultimate plan is to construct a vertical milling attachment, but it will be quite useful as is. Haven't figured out what taper it is yet, haven't had the arbor off it. I used to operate a horizontal mill as an apprentice machinist, it was great because no one else wanted to use it and I could get on it to do facing operations, just have to be creative on the work holding methods.
It's very cute. Has power feed, probably just on the Y axis, haven't looked closely, only took the cover off it minutes ago.
