I remembered! Sorry for the delay. Brain sometimes forgets to do stuff before I leave the shop. Here is the shaft configuration and the broken handle. The little nub on the end broke off and you can see where it was previously welded back. I accidentally broke it off again by hand just by being...

I have forgotten both Monday and Tuesday while at the shop to take pictures 🤦‍♂️. I will try harder tomorrow. Once again give me a call, text or PM if you are really interested! Thanks

I used some swivel leveling feet from MC Master and some long grade 5 bolts from Fastenal. I think I had about $40-50 for the set of three. It high enough to move around with the pallet jack or forklift. Works great!

I am surprised it is still around as well. Hell of a lathe for 3500 like I said before. I rather put part of the money into the 1000ee though instead of keeping this one. And all my other projects haha

Totally forgot to take more pictures at the shop on Friday. I might be by the shop today but if not today tomorrow for sure.

I have updated the design some. But more meat to it and looks a bit nicer.

No knowledge of any issues except one of the handles is broken with a previous weld. Easy fix just haven't gotten to it. Just the straight metal handle not a cast one. Lathe was in use when the owner died. I am fairly certain the ball screw is just for the feeds. I will take the cover off and...

No taper attachment

I never have gotten a DRO for my 10ee and it’s been a pain trying to mount an indicator to the bed. I decided to design and 3D print some high quality 10ee bed clamps with indicator holders. These work super well. I designed them to be very durable and precise. All the threads are metal...

Footprint 40x128 Pretty sure 220v Weight around 6000-6500 Spindle bore 1.82” probably 1.75 stock

I am quite surprised as well. Any less than $3500 and I’ll just keep it. Such and amazing machine. My guess is not hobby size and most people don’t know about Ikegai.

Lathe is still around. I would take 3500 if someone is interested

Yeah the only reason I bought this one was because it looked like it was very easy to convert. The only thing I have bought for it was a new ram. Haven't gotten around to ordering new end brackets but it looks like it'll bolt right up to the old ball screws and mounting holes.

10ee sign on bonus?

I have a true trace I’m converting to a manual machine. I don’t need any of the parts. Just wondering if the parts are worth keeping around really.
