I want a lathe

So I'm looking for something similar to the cx701 in size.

Basically it can't be too big because it's got to go in my basement, but it's got to be big enough. Need a 1.5" bore or so, and everything else will likely be close to correct if I get it with that bore and not too long a bed.

I found one in bc but sadly I'm not going to bc for a few months :(

Let me know if you hear of anything. It needs to be in decent shape and must have all gears etc with it. I don't want to try to piece something together.
 
Haha I just replied to that ad, Jasmin. [emoji14] I was hoping to see pictures of the accessories.

I'm trying to buy that one right now, a guy from Calgary is up here to look at it tonight. I hope he doesn't take it. [emoji14]

I was actually going to buy that one, but it's metric. That and I need to sell a gun before I can really buy the Damn thing.Ugh, wish I had more hours right now
 
No I was talking to him but he wouldn't come down enough in price to make it happen for me

Anyone want to buy a Dlask DAR22 rifle? Haha
 
bumping this up - looking for something even smaller if possible. Must be a bench top lathe, but something bigger than the super small hobby ones. 8 or 9 inch swing minimum, 20" bed minimum, I'd say. But CHEAP is the name of the game here.

Can trade a gun for the right machine ;)
