Wells index is still making knee mills in Michigan, still using the same foundry I believe. full parts support.

The Index's were/are the Cadillac of manual knee mills.
Lots of neat/different features than a b-port.

I had been looking for a nice Index close to home that could be loaded (time is money and I am over not having something just set right on my gooseneck anymore) and put to work with a little bit of tooling.
