Even with the ferry costs from the island it looks like a good deal.

the 3 phase motor will put everyone off. Buy a single phase motor or get a VFD. No serious impediment there. Did anyone on here get it? This is how some forum members have 3 mills and 9 lathes.

I'm tempted but resisting hard...

3 phase motors are much preferred on machine tools in my world.

That's a steal if it was US$1500!

Pffft .
A simple bag of holding should do the trick .
Or in this case, a "Shop of holding" ( releasing my Inner DnD nerd. )
