Exacto milling machine

[teaching science]

I have a chance t get an exacto milling machine for a pretty good price. Questions I have are: Are they a good machine?? I haven"t heard of them and it seems there is little to no info online about them. It is very large and has a built in powerfeed for the table. Its mounted under the table on the knee. Is it 3 phase or single?? I would appreciate any information you could give me about this machine.

Thanks and Merry Christmas

I would bet that it is 3 phase.
Exacto also made a small milling machine, small table size.
Give us some dimensions of what it is.
I have never ran an Exacto Mill, what year is it? Serial Number? Where was this located? Was it in a production building or a metal shop class at a trade school?

It is in a factory but looks like it hasn"t seen a lot of use. Couldn"t see the tag to get numbers but looked like a 10x48 table. Really too big for my shop but would open up more possibilities. I have a plan to have a little machine shop after retiring from teaching. Already have a 13x40 jet lathe and a little table top mill. Now just need to learn a little about how to use to full potential.

Wasn't Exacto a Taiwanese knock off of a Bridgeport? I think they're out of business. Parts support could be a problem.
Have you asked about it on the practical machinist site?

That's a machine shop, not a manufacturer of milling machines.
