Pity I just bought a new lathe about 6 months ago, or I'd be heading up the
Hume Highway. I'll mention it around the traps and I've bookmarked the page for future reference Tom "Zebee Johnstone" wrote in message ...

I'll remind his son to grease it up while it waits to sell.... I expect all the rust is surface only, should clean up easy enough. Zebee |

Hey, Zeb. Long time. How's the bike going?
I've crated all my stuff and half of it's in Tas now. The rest is still in crates but ya get that on a big move. Still building down here, finished the house/small shop and about to start on the 16m by 13m barn. I really don't need another small lathe either. Can't think offhand of anyone who'd want one enough to pay, tho no asking price makes it kinda hard to value. Sheratons were well made. Against that, the top speed is only 1000 rpm and it has screwed chucks. Can't tell what the hole in the spindle size is but I'd be surprised if it was over 1.375". Not a lot of tooling with it. Shrug. Depends on who turns up. I paid $1000 for a Colchester Chipmaster loaded with tooling and $3500 for an Emco Maximat 11 fully tooled. I'd price this one somewhere between $1000 and $2000 for a private sale, assuming the bed & ways are in excellent condition.
