Heck, if I was still living in BC this would be sold, lol!

Looks similar to mine for a fifth of the price. Guy doesn't know how to measure a lathe. Price might be a bargain.

How does one break the cross slide handle? Tipped over?

Yup, ask me how I know...... Never did that on my lathe, but I watched a fellow do it on a mill. Doesn't take much when the mass that is going down is big.

what size does everyone think that is ? 14x40 ? looks like a real big 3 jaw for a 14" lathe

 

[Susquatch]

Just scaling off the garage doors behind it which usually are 24", I'd say it has a 6ft bed, that 3 jaw might be 10" max, and the swing is 9 or 10. The spindle doesn't look even half as big as the chuck though. I bet that 3-jaw chuck is an add-on. Guy prolly wasn't happy with the cheap 3 jaw chuck that came with it.

9 or 10 x 48?

That went quickly. Looks to be 13x40 to my eye, very similar to the Dashin Prince style Taiwanese lathes.

Fruitvale's pretty close to me, I wish i'd known about this forum 4 days ago... Not that I need this lathe, but it would've been fun to call the seller and chat.

Beautiful words those......

The need is irrelevant, it's the all about the desire to own more machines.
