Or a couple for spare parts ;P I love the old WWII ones or ones a bit after that (for lathes), I'm not so particular with my milling machines. I wish I had room in the garage and 240V out there now. Should see if any of the old school shop machines have made it to the region auctions yet. They are nice machines (or where at one point (abused by too many dumb students (shame))) but if you get any machines from a school shop make sure you get at least 3 machine, one good one and 2 more parts.
