Tree 2UVR-C mill

Got me a mill...

 From HGR In Euclid Ohio shipped by Dohrn. I picked it up at the terminal in Omaha.

                                   Marshall Michaels was the guy
  Tree 2UVR-C's have power feed on X,Y and Z axis and are stiffer than a Bridgeport. The next larger size Tree doesn't have a nodding head. I'm guessing this one was built in the late 60's. There is a Tree user group on Yahoo.

                     Door 105 inches trailer 103 tight fit
                                  Took some time to get it through
                      Dumped the air ride bags for height clearance
             Need just a little less height, flattening the trailer tires did it.
                      Hard on tires but what you gonna do?

                     Clears the door frame by 1/2"
            Flying 2,300 lbs, pulled to the side so it doesn't destroy the trailer fender.
                     Landed on 3/4 pipes so it will roll.
           Shipped with the head inverted to get the center of gravity lower. A lot of the head gearbox oil ended up in the motor but it seems OK.
                                           Rewire to 240 from 440
