Was he facing the wrong direction when he took the picture?

I see, it's apparently the tool room version? I didn't recognize one without the cast base. Seems reasonable, nice paint job and all. Even painted the pallet to match.

If that's worth $7900, then how much is my tool room model B Pacemaker worth? The sad part is, he might find some 'hobbiest' that doesn't know better, that will buy it.

He must have forgot to take a picture of the other 9 lathes that come with it.

Hey, there's only a little paint on the skid, and he didn't paint over the tags and dataplates.

So he put the wrong logo tag back on it... What's a name between friends, eh?

Now y'all been making fun of those "krylon rebuilds". If you look on the second page of his site, he's got a "rebuilt" SB 13 for only 3800. If you look closely, you can see that they have used paint to restore the ways on the cross slide. Turcite?? Scraping??? waste of time and money. You just need a little paint in there.
