Lathe bed has very good ways. It is mounted on a heavy-duty rollable table of my own design.

Lathe bed weighs about 100 lbs.

Table is made from a thick conference table top and 4" square extruded steel legs. There is a thick plywood shelf on the bottom. Actually, there are two pieces of 3/4 ply; the second can be made into an additional shelf. The whole thing rests on four 1000 lb. - rated locking swivel casters. One person can move it in and out of tight spaces.

You'll need a pickup truck with either a ramp or a crane to transport it, or you can disassemble it.

Whichever option you choose, bring a helper!

You are free to remove the bed from the table. Bring a socket wrench.

There are several items of interest on the shelf, including:

Gallon containers of machine oil.

Lathe guard.

It's all under a blue tarp.

FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE!

I get nervous when I see adds like that. Or the "In the back yard, help yourself, but do not knock at the door" Is it real? or a neighbor getting back at another for having stuff outside in the yard.
