• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

My spicy sense is tingling, picture isn’t very good is that a clone?
There is no Myford name cast into the headstock and it looks like a "Colt" sticker, good catch.

Picture is from lathes.co.uk.

I believe Colt is one of the better clones so could still be a good deal.

Burned by autocorrect………that should be spidey…..and when I just typed this it did it again - twice!

Thankyou Apple.

Back to the lathe, the nameplate didn’t look right, the belt cover handle looks like it’s intergalactic (automistake again…..) integral to the casting and the cross & compounds don’t look right.

That said, it looks like a long bed.

D :cool:
