is $1500.00 a good price ?


Most likely it is a good deal.

i


I checked ebay and they are trying to get $6-7K for that machine.

Luckliy this one has the metric thread cutting gears, face plate,
3 & 4 Jaw chucks, 5c collet adaptor, aloris tool post with a bunch
of holders, taper attachment and original manual. This wasi n a tool & die,
mold shop. The owner said they bought it new. Did a couple of test cuts
and its a tight machine as one would expect on a machine with hardend ways.

Anyway now i can make some .0001" tolerance candle stick holders for
christmas gifts....

Best Regards
Tom.
