I signed up for this netparcel (free). I have yet to find an example where its significantly cheaper, if at all, vs options I've been using. But it is a nice quick interface tool to pop in minimal parameters & it lists the costs from high to low amongst many common shippers. That at least saves time saves time navigating amongst multiple shipper websites which is PITA

Does anyone have an idea of what it would cost to ship this to Ontario?

Might be worth looking around the interwebs, to see if you can get one delivered direct from one of the online retailers for less than paying shipping.

My guess (from the style of the index dial and pointer, which is a little different than the Myford originals) is that this on is one out of India.

In the UK, this outfit sells them https://www.warco.co.uk/myford-lath...-milling-machine-slide-myford-ml7-lathes.html And if you copy and pate the description from the Warco site in to ebay's search bar, there are a bunch available with free shipping for very little more than this one is listed at.
