Description

ILION Industrial Services is pleased to announce this brand new renovation manual which is written specifically for the Bridgeport 2J variable speed mills. If you are planning on refurbishing your Bridgeport Series 1 "2J" or "2J2" Mill or if you are out in the market looking for a good used Bridgeport, then this manual is a great place to start. " A Guide to Renovating the Bridgeport 2J Variable Speed Milling Machine " ; our 152 page soft-cover shop manual, is fully illustrated with over 400 B&W photographs and diagrams, plus step-by-step instructions for disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and adjusting all of the critical components of the variable speed 2J milling machine. The manual also illustrates the difference in the various models and provides guidance for evaluating a used machine before you purchase. Bridgeport never produced a full blown maintenance manual for their mills so this is the closest you will come to a step-by-step guide. The typeface of the manual is printed two points larger than normal for those of us who prefer to work at the bench without the use of our reading glasses. The instructions are simple and easy to follow... no prior machinery renovation experience is required. Though the Bridgeport is an industrial machine, it is well suited for the home garage shop or small business and the task of loacting one, getting it home and placing it back in service is not as expensive or challenging as you may think. Let us show you how. If you are interested in the original Bridgeport J Head (the Step-Pulley model), please check out our other books on Amazon. Read more

    • Good Reference for Rejuvenating and Repairing your Bridgeport
This book is a must-have if you need to rejuvenate or repair your Bridgeport, but have never taken one apart…or if you have dementia like me and can’t remember how you tore apart your mill 20 years ago. It is best to use this book as a reference in conjunction with the various YouTube videos that show you how to disassemble and reassemble the head, table and knee. The appendix lists various venders that can supply parts and rebuilt components. One of the venders listed supplies complete head rebuild kits and they also have a bunch of YouTube videos. Good book. ... show more

Not having any ideall what I was getting in to, it toke some time but it's running fine now.... ... show more

    • Thank you
That is thanks for taking the time an effort to publish this fine guide. If I may say so, it is the "bible" your going to want to have if you feel like getting into your bridgeport or even a knock-off. Very clear and informative pictures of the parts and assemblies, with a reasonable amount of hand holding for the less informed, very easy to skip over if one thinks that it is too basic. I give it 5 stars even though the full parts and assembly diagrams and part numbers (clarity wise) at the end of the guide are not up to the level of the rest of the manual. However I have found these same diagrams else ware on the web. ... show more

    • I really like this manual.
I really like this manual. I thought at first that the print was a little too big until I discovered that I could read the words several feet away. The only problem was I couldn't see the pictures well enough at that distance. That is a problem with my eyes not this manual. One of the best things about this manual is that the pictures that the text refers to is always on the same page as the text. No flip-flopping back and forth as is usually the case with manuals. I highly recommend this manual. ... show more

This is a wonderful resource if you want to get a running mill in better shape. I suppose it would even be a good resource for a non runner, but it doesn't give instruction on realignment or other in depth instruction on rebuilding. The description tells you exactly what the book is about. "Renovation", not a rebuild. ... show more

    • Good book, but could be better.
A good book with a lot of pictures. Unfortunately not much can be found in respect to putting the machine together and doing the alignment. It is better than nothing, but I expected more...
