This Is a Chance In a Lifetime For Someone...!
I am going to give away this Lathe, free to good home...
The lathe comes with tons of stuff as seen in this thread including a bison chuck, stand and all.... whats left to do is solve all the oil leaks in the gearhead and fix the electrical distribution bar in the panel. technically you could just slap it back together and use it.
The many slow oil leaks all over the place drive me nuts, and I refuse to use it like that,
I am getting old this up-coming birthday, and Ill never get this lathe done cause its always on the back burner to my other projects, I'm just going to buy a new ready to use lathe sometime in the future.
This Lathe is located in las Vegas, weighs in at around 1000 lbs. and can be loaded in the back of a truck via my engine hoist in a couple pieces. The lathe bedways seem to be in really decent shape so the bones are good, Just needs a bunch of TLC.
Who Its for:
It's not for sale Its for free to someone that can fix, use and appreciate it..
It's for the guy who wants to fix and give it to a relative or friend that cant afford but so deserves a cool lathe..
Who its not for:
It's not for the guy that just wants to pick it up and sell it... my good fortune is not yours, Id rather cut it up in 10 Peces and throw it away.
So how do we figure out who gets it... I would love for someone on these forums to get and use it. so I ask for everyone's help figuring this out..
Thank you for the help with this in advance... No rush lets get it to the right person.
Mr Mike.
