Emco 5 with milling head, $700, Calgary

It's so cute!
That is a smoking deal, basically a 7X minilathe size but good quality. Some member needs to scoop that up pronto!
Would be a fun CNC lathe conversion :)
 
Thanks for posting Epete. I have wanted one of these for ever. More so then any of the other micro lathes from the 80's
I sent an message to the owner and they agreed so Sold, to this guy, picking up tomorrow.
The owner has other parts and equipment for sale so I may have a look at what else is there.

I love that you got this... Totally envious!
(it's too far away and all for me but still... what a cool machine)
 
I sent in a message as soon as I saw the post and I will be going tomorrow morning to pick up. I have been drooling over one of these since I was kid in the early 80's but figured I would never get one. The Taig lathe I have, that I got a little while ago will be going up for sale after I get this one home.

Problem is not getting it home at this point, hiding it from the wife might be a bit of an issue. Once I sell the Taig lathe it will be all good.
