    South Bend 9" A, $2000, Peterborough

    Had me looking at flights and renting a truck to get that back to BC. Would make a pretty nice lathe for starting out

    Craftex B2227L Lathe - $1400 - Nanaimo

    I messaged the seller to ask a few questions. It does have a tailstock there, and comes with some basic OD turning tools. He also has a little craftex mill for sale as well

    WTB: Lathe and tooling

    I sort of figured my center to center with anything bigger than a 9" swing would be more than ample for the stuff I'm doing. Anything much bigger than that I'd probably do in a CNC at work lol

    WTB: Lathe and tooling

    Looking to expand my home shop capabilities. Hoping to find a decently sized lathe (9" swing minimum, ideally more) somewhere close to Vancouver Island. I can come over to the mainland to pick up for the right deal. Ideally I'd like to find something with all the bits to get me started...
