I will not sell you mine. Sorry. It is home built, using a turn-of-the-century Hasluck book. I would not recommend you try that, even though the Hasluck books are excellent. If I had to do it again, and on the real cheap, I would visit the Lindsay books site, and see what Gingery did. Good bang for buck on the books there. lindsaybks.com.
dont know how cheap you want but check this out....http://www.harborfreight.com/7-inch-x-10-inch-precision-mini-lathe-93212.html
I would probably avoid the combo lathe/mills. They sound great in theory but take forever to setup and switch from one to the other and have a habit of more breakdowns. The only combo I would buy would be like a Smithy or something of that caliber but would rather have to mini desktop models unless space is a real issue.
Any one selling a used Bench Top Metal Lathe?
Was in Harbor Freight this afternoon and they have a 7 x 10" bench lathe for $499.00. That is new and complete. Plug in and play.
