A friend of mine is getting rid of his equipment. He has my old CNC
lathe a Nakamura ATM2NDX model made in 1977. We bought it new then and
I sold it about 15 years ago to this guy. It is an exceptional machine
as far as versatility. It has a little 6" chuck but a huge capacity
for OD work (I ran up to 20" dia as I recall). Also has a programmable
swing-away tailstock. 3 speed transmission and tremendous torque in
low range, more than my present 25hp machine. The control is a
Mitsubishi 5100A CNC with a display line, no crt. The machine ran up
until it last dropped the parameters and he can't get the tape reader
to accept the para tape.

It's in El Cajon, Ca. just east of San Diego. Free, you haul
away...bring all your friends, it's a big machine.

He has a web site, I'm not sure of the address but he is Balboa
Patterns in El Cajon.
