The dealer wants $6500. Coolant pump is not wired up, no taper attachment, top speed of 890.I paid $600 for my 20" w 4 years ago,it has made me a lot of money since then. I'm sure the asking price is a fair bit.

I was at an auction last November 7th in Portland, OR. The auction company was American Auctioneers Group. Both of these Axelson lathes and the chucks sold for a hammer price of $1000.00. The first lathe is an 18x103 and the second lathe is a 16x80. I didn't bid on the Axelsons. However I did end up with the manuals for them as well as the original receipt from when it was purchased by the company in the mid fifties. The buyer didn't take them and they were going to be tossed in to the trash along with an entire file cabinet drawer of other manuals and sales brochures that I also grabbed. I did buy the 16x78 Pacemaker and the 9x36 Hole Wizard (I went to the auction just for the Hole Wizard) as well as a bunch of other stuff.

After watching your video of the riggers moving it, I am reminded why I move everything by myself. Yup, it is slow and I am worn out, but I can take it slow and easy. And I have nobody to blame but myself, should bad things happen.
