Sounds like he expects to get back every cent he paid. I don't think it works that way.

Ya I'm going to guess there is not many hobby guys that want to spend that sort of money on machinery and tooling in a lump and picked by another hobby dude.

 

[Dan Dubeau]

Nice clean looking shop. Pretty ambitious pricing....

 

[Tomc938]

Quick Look at the prices he lists, and might be $13,000 worth. But that's today's prices. Hard to say what he paid for it. So, yeah, might be retail.

He’s asking 10K. Which is about $3K more than the mill and lathe cost new. So pretty darn hopeful pricing I’d say.

Maybe his wife told him he had to sell, priced high so unlikely he would get a buyer…

I'm trying my best, honey...

I feel badly, I guess his dreams/ambitions didn't work out. Yeah, pretty tough sell to get his money back.

If you went out and bought all of that new, you’d spend more than $10K. I’d have to see all the tooling.

Possible, but like many of us here it may not be his/her wife/husband dictating to sell but maybe his/her health that dictates what they can do or not do anymore

He does have a very long list of accessories on a spreadsheet.

Would have been nice to see the total. I just did a rough running total in my head and came up with about 13K, give or take a couple of K. But those are current prices. If he bought a couple of years ago the prices would have been lower.

I wonder how people keep their shops as neat as that. Before I built a sheet metal enclosure for my mill after running it for even a short time everything would be wet within 10 feet of the mill. The lathe is not as bad but still there are chips everywhere.

That's what it looks like when it never gets used, he had fun putting it all together though.

That’s my thoughts exactly when there are zero chips or oil on any machine.

I try to keep my stuff clean…. But there are still many many tiny chips and a coat of cutting oil that a casual wipe/blowdown doesn’t get.

My lathe is almost brand new and I think I’ve emptied the chip pan twice already…..
