• 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!

I can say that this is a clean lathe as I did most of the work on it with help from forum members. See my post history for the complete teardown, cleaning/inspect, and reassembly.

The 3/4 HP Baldor motor was NIB when I put it on this lathe. Live center, etc were mostly all new pieces from accusize. There's a few nicks in the ways close to the chuck as well as some 'opps' crash/contact marks on the compound - none of which affects operation.

I am not engaged with teh seller other than me messaging him on Facebook and saying 'Hey, thats my old lathe!". He's moving into a Smithy machine.

if anyone is wondering about the brass shims under the bed at the tailstock end, I added those while I was adjusting the bed to minimize runout on lengthwise cuts.
