I am new to the site and machining in general. I am looking to buy a SB 9A and use it at as a hobby maching in my garage. I build cars, dune buggies, etc as a hobby and use a machine shop several times a year for custom parts. While thats not a bad deal i enjoy doing it myself.
So i have found a 9A that has been privately owned for hte last 15 years. it comes with a 3&4 jaw chuck, single point tool holders, some carbide bits, collet set and claser, and a quick change gear box. The owner claims it is in great shape and turns to .001" repeatedly.
I am not looking to steal it but would like to know a fair market value on the lathe. the owner has moved and no longer has room for it. it has only been sitting a few months.
Here are a few pics. I know you cant determine wear from the pics.
