I do not have a lot of information about the actual lathe. I do know that it is a Logan 200. The seller states that it has all the change gears. He states it has no known issues. It comes with the cast iron legs. It has the original tool post and has not been upgraded to a quick change tool post. I'm assuming little if any tooling is included in with the sale. The seller states it ran perfectly when last used, but hasn't been used for a handful of years. He couldn't remember the last time he ran it. The only picture he has posted is one of several pictures of a sale he has. I believe he is a retired machinist as many of his other items for sale are precision measure devices, such as micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, ECT. Back to the lathe. His asking price is $1500.
From what I know, the Logan 200 is a very capable lathe, especially for a beginner hobbiest. So first, is there specific issues that come up with older Logan lathes that I could ask the seller? Second, if the lathe is in good or better than good shape, is it worth $1500?
Thank you for any info and help you have to offer.
