Metal lathe$200 Mississauga on.

A project for sure but the chucks and rests would make making your money back reasonably easy.

Look closely, cross slide casting is broken.

Run away, run away.

Run away, run away.

Good call. Would be well worth it still if you need the accessories. It looks like the knob of the cross slide is sitting on the right side of the chip pan. Must have been dropped or rolled over.

Major rebuild.
If it does not look straight, it probably isn’t.

Tear it apart !!
There has to be at least $1000 in parts there.

Don't worry it's only in "used-good" condition.

To me, this is a no brainer. There is at least a grand of parts there.

Part it out and take the rest to the scrap yard. If it was Chatham, I'd already be in the truck with a trailer behind me. The parts are prolly worth a grand as others have said. But it's easy to overlook the stand that is both strong and rigid and I bet the chip tray is fixable.

I just tore an old threading/collet lathe apart last week and easily collected $200 worth of cap head screws alone, from very small to 3/8 inch let alone the shafting (apron drives) and hand wheels with graduated dials. These dials and wheels will be retro-fitted to the "old Hendey lathe" that followed me home ( they can be readily read much more easy than the originals).
The main pieces I got that lathe for was the pinion drive for the carriage to be used in a deep hole drilling & reaming machine for barrel making but it came with an unexpected bonus that I discovered while dismantling...it had a very tight "as in no backlash" worm & a gear built into the cross slide mechanism that will work wonderfully for the capstan angle drive for a cut rifling machine addition.
Plus....being a dedicated threading machine, it has prob a 30 different change gear selection from 18 tooth up to over 80 i think I seen.

Tough call if its worth your time, every person values their time differently and for me, my time is better spent doing things that create more value in less time spent.

Several nice looking machines at that Kijiji site (Mississauga/Peel Region).

If someone has the time . . . It may be well worth the parts - separated.
