Birmingham 12x30 gear head lathe

Rong Fu 40 mill

Gunner, those are WAY over-priced.
I have a similar lathe (same factory, slightly different model), only
mine is a 14x40. All-up price including a ton of accessories NEW was
only $2400 FOB. (yes, on sale... but does that matter?)

And that dinky, flexy desktop mill-drill isn't a good mill OR a good
drill press. Also available under $1800 if you look for the sales.

He'd have to throw in a truly expensive assortment of tooling to make
that deal worth the postage to send a check.
