Milling machine, Hor. & Vertical, “Varnamo FU-3 with motorized overarm! ex Gov’t

$7,900.00 USD

“This gorgeously equipped Swedish milling machine appears to have little use or wear, as it came from a Canadian federal training facility! The joystick handle on the lower left side of the knee is no longer in its protective rubber bellows. We feel the tables and slideways, bed etc. are in good condition and no need to re-scrape or grind the ways,. whatever. We are missing the table spindle feed handle which can be used on either end.”

COMMENTS:
This beautifully designed top quality European milling has a complete frame-mounted control panel.
The vertical head is equipped with a quill for both manual and fine screw down feed! (Unusual)
As an ex prison training program machine from Kingston, ON, (cancelled) we suspect it saw little use.
We have not run this machine and it sat about 3 years doing nothing, but this should not have hurt it.
(We guess this is under 15% of new price! and it’s at least 60 % of a new machine.)
