I have a werner swayze #4 M-1420 lathe. it has a serial # as 545653 lot # as # 43. I would like to find out the date of manufacture and anything else on this machine. I tried googling it but nothing I could find. Any help would be great.
 
Might help your searches if you use correct spelling of name "Warner Swasey"
sorry, didnt proof read it like I should have. My fault. I have looked it up on several web sites only to find estimated on dates. It looks like maybe the 50s. But I cannot find anything concrete.
 
I think you are being a bit optimistic, and when looking at ads there are asking prices, actual sold price may be different, if it sells. Turret lathes are not exactly a hot item these days, many end up being scrapped for lack of a home. Post up some pics, if its really nice, and has lots tooling, someone might be interested at the right price, but don't hold your breath.

Do you have the equipment to load this on someones trailer? That right there might make the difference between selling it, and offering it for free.
