Small engine boring machine
Porta-tool small engine cylinder boring machine. The motor and feed work fine. The micrometer is stuck and it is missing the centering fixture. $500. Located in the Minneapolis area.

Re: Small engine boring machine
I have a video of the machine running. I cannot post it but I can send it in a text if anyone wants to see it.
Re: Small engine boring machine
Good machine although I think they are out of business. 3-finger centering similar to KW. Tooling is cheap. Been using one for 40 years for smaller-midsize MC cylinders. Very few issues over the years. Minor replacement parts are universal. Larger MC/ATV/Jetski bores using KW FWS11.

Yup. I would keep it if I didn't get the small boring head for my rottler. Do you happen to have a picture of the centering fixture?dhidaka wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 9:08 pm Good machine although I think they are out of business. 3-finger centering similar to KW.

Re: Small engine boring machine
