A few years ago I found 1/2 of an Atlas at the dump (missing carriage &
tailstock). With that much missing, I decided to part it out. When I
was well into the parting out, the other half turned up at the dump.
When I was done, my eBay sales totaled $1700! And it was a change-gear
lathe.


wow.

makes me think, maybe i should part out the 16 inch Monarch before
scrapping it?
