$800 - seems like would be a cool machine. I am back on the boat :(
 
I wish I had the room...:(. 7B would that be a 7" stroke?

Aren't you like 2 days early for being back bobbing about on the lakes?
 
Wednesday is the day - Garbage day at home and I go away for 28 days - seems appropriate in some strange way - yes on the 7" stroke- would be a cute little guy in the shop...alas...or atlas....as the case is....
 
The Atlas 7B is a 7" shaper, and that seems like a very reasonable price for it seeings as it comes with a factory stand.
 
Did Atlas make anything smaller than this?
As far as the Atlas shaper is concerned, no, to the best of my knowledge there was just the one size at 7”. Similarly the MF (A,B, or C) horizontal miller were various versions but still the same size of machine with a 4-1/2” x 18” table. Their smallest lathe offering was the 612 at 6” swing over bed and 12” between centres.

to buy or not to ..... the time to think and it is probably sold...
