Thread: FS Rivett 505 project w/turett, lever slide, etc..

I have a Rivett 505 all in pieces with a bunch of tooling.
Headstock is ball bearing and takes 5C's. It also has an unusual(to me anyway) lever closer, that works nice and has a very short throw.

See pics for what is included, reg and turett tailstock, reg compound and a lever one. NOTE(and I didn't see this till I looked at these pics) the lever one is not made for the bed, maybe its for a Hardinge. I expect Larry will be along soon to tell us what it IS from. It does fit though, after a fashion.

There is a Craftsman 3 jaw with both sets of jaws, and one 5C collet, and some random tooling for the turett. There are a couple toolposts as well.

No motor, but the unique 3 V belts drive pulley is included.

I'm in central Jersey and you can pick up anytime(no shipping) $350.00

Damn, I would love to have some of these parts, congrats to whoever gets this! I would be willing to give $200 for the headstock and cross slide alone
