Default Wayne Cook-Big Lathe?

Interesting. I wonder what the centers are. I need a minimum of 8'
and the max I can fit in the shop is 10'. The 21" max swing of my
Sidney (the lathe I'm trying to replace) is about perfect. There's
been a few times that I've used it all and only about 3 times that it
wasn't big enough. Bigger lathes tend to be to heavy to use for the
smaller work which is the majority that I do.



I've got a 16" x 120" LeBlond that I'd give away for the help in moving it
out of the shop. It's buried behind two mills and two grinders. it has
become a tool shelf sence I got the 22"x72" Mazak CNC running. Warning: It
will take more than a day to extract and you ain't gonna haul it home in a
pickup truck.
