Anyway i Just bought an very ancient cast iron burfree nibbler and hoping to share some pics get some help with tooling etc.
I will be doing 3phase conversion. Vfd etc. Which I've done before will milling machine but I'm sure this may take some time before I can even get the thing nibbling

It's small but heavy duty only 12" throat. Hoping it will help me at worst with my repetitive tin snip elbow pain..����

At best turn it into a mini pull max type machine.

Regards

I had one of those some years back and was going to keep it to see if I could turn it into something useful but never got the inspiration to do anything with it and eventually sold it. I'll be interested to see photos of yours. Whereabouts did you buy it from?
