The Anatomy of Hamilton Milling Machines

A quick look at a pair of Horizontal and Vertical Milling Machines made by Hamilton Associates of Baltimore MD. These two are cute as a button and rather rare.

lovely mills, I would be proud to own either. was hoping to hear you say that the table axis were capable of 0.001 gradient adjustment, but still lovely. Better by far than the modern mini-mills around now that have so many hits on youtube. I hope they are serving you well!

Rich, that is a nice little set of machines that you have there. Thanks for sharing. Peace!

That little vertically machine is a beaut, I love it, it reminds me of an old Dore Westbury we have here in England, I'd kill for one of those, how much was it?

I just purchased a Hamilton lathe/ milling machine. Most of the parts are there. Maybe you would be interested in seeing some of the pictures of it.

Please make an "anatomy of" video for that Hamilton lathe! The one you can see to the right at the beginning, I just bought one and would love to see what it needs to be restored. Specifically stuff about the tool post, but overall too

Cool lil machines

That vertical is cuter than a bugs ear 😉

[@spongerich]

Yeah, they were both pretty adorable and pretty sturdy for their size. Both quickly found good homes. The vertical went to a gentleman in Australia.

Have you tried looking at lathes.co.uk. They have info and pictures on the lathe and horizontal miller. They are both under the lathes - US heading. Hamilton lathe - Maryland. I like your channel. How about a tour of your shop?

+Dave Lee Hi Dave, There's a bit of info on the lathe, but nothing on the standalone milling machines. I have sent a bunch of photos to Tony over there so he can add them to the archive.
