I think protocol allows me one self serving yell on this NG (apologies
if this is not correct). I am selling my Myford Super 7. It's in pretty
good shape and has a fair amount of tooling. You can see it here on
Ebay. It's located in Northern CA (Bay area) and I'd love it if I
didn't have to crate it up.

One of the best ebay descriptions I've ever seen.

I have ahalf a mind to buy that thing and make some damn chips with it.
Use some sulfer cutting oil and then go home. Leave it like that for a
week.

I hate people with clean machines, like a clean desk it is a sign of a
sick mind

Oh, nice machine

I curious why you are selling it. I have owned three myfords and still
like (and use) my super 7 even though I have a very nice 11 inch rockwell.
I could be strange though, because i still use my sherline now and then too.

Maybe he's got more than one Myford Super 7 wink.

Actually the ebay add said he needed the room for new projects.
I am taking a Myford super 7 to NAMEs. It will be FS at Dicks Trimstra's
booth.

Thanks for the nice words about the description. I never understood how
ebay sellers expect people to plunk down several K $ based on two fuzzy
pictures and a one-line description. Then to top it off, they have 4
paragraphs of nasty "boiler plate" with all the things that the buyer
better not do. They don't seem to realize that they have competition
from people with manners.

I'm selling the lathe because I really didn't use it much. I may regret
it down the road, but my space is limited and I want to play with CNC,
so it's on to new toys. I've seen garages where you can't take a step
and I *really* don't want to go there.

Does anyone have a line on the cheapest shipping options? I am a novice
at this.

cheapest shipping options scares the crap outta me. If it is going far,
I would put it in a crate, bolted down strapped down, sealed in foam or
something. Lathes are top heavy and forklift unfriendly. Strapping it to
a pallet with a roadway sticker on it is a good way to make
someone[possibly you] very unhappy.


Well packed in one crate common carrier should be a good option, assume
they are going to lie it on its face at some point in its travel, and
pack accordingly. If you can move it to somewhere with a dock, you might
save on freight costs, if that costs more than the short move. Also big
companies get big discounts[70 percent] on shipping, so if you have a
friend....
