Wish I had a place for it, but if you're in the Bay area and looking
for a lathe, you might want to check this one out:

It appears as though it has been deleted. Otherwise I would go for it
in an instance. Currently we are making do with a Craftsman 12 inch
metalworking lathe from the '50s. That is less than 20 minutes from
where I live.

Ah, so it does. Probably a typo, the guy meant the price to be $2995
or something like that. Oh, well.

Even worse -- now he's running an auction! Claims he got 23 calls for
it immediately and guys were throwing cash at him. Here's the current
ad:

Doesn't seem to be the most ethical seller. I'd be wary.

I sure feel bad for the first guy that thought he was getting it at that
price.
