Hi all,
I was recently at an action and picked up my first lathe, from my initial research it appears to be a Monarch AA but I am yet to work out what size it is.
The lathe is still at the workshop so I am in the process of working out how to move the big unit, I am trying to gauge a rough weight of the lathe so I can see if my truck will be up to the tasks or if I need to get someone to move it for me - We have an 8ton excavator to lift it at the workshop end and the same at my end so I think that will be up to the lifting task.
I have uploaded a few pictures, wondering what information people might be able to give me based on the photos? As it was an action I was rushed a bit and did not get a chance to takes measurements before I left or decent photos. I might try head into the workshop and grab the bed length and swing this week.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
