Virtually all shipyards in the United States are using Master Portable Mills.

The reason is simple. They want to do ma- chining where it's the most efficient and eco- nomical. So they take their Master Portable

Mill to the work. On board or off.

The key to the popularity of Master Mills is their versatility. One machine can perform milling, drilling, boring, and counterboring operations.

It features longitudinal, cross, and vertical travel. Plus a right- angle head accessory fully usable 360°. So Master Mills can be adapted to just about any metalworking repair job.

To get the machine to limited areas, such as below deck, it quickly and easily dismantles into three units.

Portable Mills, write us.
