Urgent: Oliver lathe bed/legs worth anything, anyone?
Crossposted with good intentions(Yeah I know where that leads)
Original post Just heard from a friend of mine who shares similar machine interest. He ended up with the bed and legs assembly for a vintage Oliver wood lathe. He doesn't want it, and I don't have the space for it, so he wants to know if it's worth anything. I haven't seen, so I can't give a really good description. He says it's about 35" high from the floor to the top of the bed. Both legs are identical, so I'm guessing it's an earlier one. Figures it weights about 250 pounds assembled. He's located in eastern MA, about a half hour up the coast from Boston. So is this worth anything? Does anyone want this? He plans on junking very soon it if no one wants to buy it. I'd hate to see that happen, so speak now or... GTO(John) and followup: Unisaw A100 wrote: So is this worth anything? Yes. Does anyone want this? Yes, but, it's in Boston (wrong coast) and I'm on the east coast (Lake Michigan). He plans on junking very soon it if no one wants to buy it. Ouch! I'd hate to see that happen, so speak now or... I really think this needs to be brought to the attention of the proper authorities. If you don't, I will. UA100 Post to rec.crafts woodturning, as this post is being crossposted, and I'm sure there's a turner in that area willing to relieve him of the problem. Joe |
