Nice CNC Metal lathe/mill. Doubt it would do welll with spray and mist
automation jets on a wood stick. The input is a tube. The Input material is a long stick of steel or other metal. Martin On 2/17/2017 2:12 PM, wrote: https://philadelphia.craigslist.org/tld/6007842494.html You can toss all yer udder tools out to da curb... |

Maybe I missed it, but I did not see a price. Usually on Craigslist a price is given showing what the seller wants for the item. Its not like eBay where you bid for the item. For anyone familiar with machine lathes, do the letters on the control panel mean something? They are not your normal QWERTY typewriter letters. Does that arrangement of letters mean something in CNC land?

That is a CNC manual keyboard. It talks CNC not ASCII/querky.
there are three pictures to show the system. check out the center one - for the work area. Normally you upload the program into it and then start debugging. Keyboard can patch your program. Then you fix your program for production try and then release... If you think - get info on the CNC controller and the language for it. There are specs for the machine - how large something can be and what it can do with that object. Martin On 2/18/2017 6:07 PM, wrote: Maybe I missed it, but I did not see a price.

Its not no price when i looked at it but unless someone had a lot of money to spend they would know what that is worth and would offer a price like eBay where you bid for the item. For anyone familiar with ebay is in the death throes last i heard ceo says ebay is not an online flea market so they try to compete with amazon and we know that will fail |

It would be nice to have a 'measure' mode or 'copy' mode - read the
master between centers and make 250 spindles... table legs.... Looking at old homes one wonders on the patience of the stair turners making spindles for days on end. Then start over for the employee stairs and perhaps another one or two for the rich end.

Only someone who knows what it is and what it is worth would make an offer or even look at the ad. |

Looking at old homes one wonders on the patience of the stair turners making spindles for days on end. Then start over for the employee stairs and perhaps another one or two for the rich end. Not sure how things were done long ago. But I bet most stairs were made by a few factories. All home builders used these same few factories. They were not built individually by the local craftsman. One guy did not make just the stair spindles for one house. The homebuilder called, wrote the company he deals with and asked for 50 spindles for Johnson staircase in a paint grade. And another 100 homebuilders around the state or area called, wrote the company and asked for the same thing. So the stair factory had one or two guys in the factory making the exact same spindle 12 hours a day, 6 days a week all year long. Specialization, production has been going on for hundreds of years now. The concept started before automated machinery came along. |

Pretty sure this is a case of "if you need to ask the price, you probably can't afford it" comes into play... |
