My new toy just arrived.
Adcock & Shipley 1ES, vertical/horizontal mill - Bridgeport, with auto quill
Got it from a retired machinist. Unfortunately as the old story goes... grease where oil should be, quill is stuck/ seized, etc. But in perfect condition, so can not see anything that would prevent it from being an amazing addition to my humble workshop.

Starting the refurb with bringing the headstock back to life.
Stay tuned for the vids on YT.

So I started refurbishing this beauty. Does anybody have a user manual or any documentation for a SIMPLON 2VA/URT vertical mill? I'd like anything on the auto feed head.
The mill itself is an Adcock & Shipley 1ES if my memory serves me well.
Thanks a million,
Greg

Progress update on the custom motorbike fuel cell cap lock!

After contacting Carl I was allowed to change the design a bit and machined all the blanks.
I believe this way is so much easier and actually possible to finish this project.
Next step is to mount them onto the Archdale Horizontal mill and cut those steps that will actually lock the cap in place.
