    Vertical mill - Information needed

    I thought you guys might be the only ones that may be able to give me any of the information that I need. Thank you in advance for any responses!

    BTW: I am new to any kind of machining and just learning so I apologize for any incorrect information.

    -----------------------------------

    I just purchased a vertical mill and horizontal from a friend. The mill belonged to his grandfather who passed away.

    The vertical mill is an index 645, the odd thing is it looks like it may have a completely different motor, spindle, heck the complete head. The head has a tag labeled as follows

    - "Rusnok Tool Works Chicago Illinois"
    - Model # "ST" or "S-T" I cannot really tell
    - Serial number is "T#179"

    My question is what kind of spindle would this mill have? I am wondering what kind of tooling I can use with this mill..

    I am uploading pictures of the mill to http://www.skywasyellow.com/vertical

    I have uploaded the pictures without shrinking them, if you would like a smaller picture you can simply download to your desktop and view them in your own picture viewer.

    Once again thank you in advance for any responses!
