I’ve mostly only used it as a hobbiest, mostly making tooling, etc. I paid $5000 for it about 2005 and it had been retrofitted in its history with a Bandit CNC. The Bridgeport was manufactured in the late seventies. That system was designed for tape input but I didn’t have that capability, therefore no way of storing a G code program that I would manually enter in. Then realizing that the old Bandit system was no longer supported, for example if a card in the card rack failed, it would be useless.?On Google I discovered the Linux EMC software available to interface it with a PC through its parallel ports, I successfully converted it to that setup. I kept the original power supply and motor driver boards. I have all the documentation for the conversion that I did.
Engraving jig with motor is included.

I am selling because I am now approaching my time here on earth although I am not ready to go at 89.
I hope you are close enough that it would be reasonable to see it.
