Nice lathe in Rochester

Post by KurtHuhn »

Hey Guys,

Jack Howell just sent me link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/VERY-NICE-HARDINGE- ... 3f01cb4c87

He says if it hasn't been beat up too bad it would make a very nice lathe for pipe making. The paint looks like it was applied with a roller, but aside from that it's difficult to tell from photos. He says that this is an unusually low price for a lathe of this type.

Kurt, this was a very mean thing to post. Now I am going to have to try to explain to my wife why we can't buy groceries for the next couple of months...
