This was on Boston CL but now it's gone. That's good, I can stop thinking about it. I was even thinking how I would pour a slab for it since my wooden barn floor would never hold it.
I hope someone on PM got it. Tell us if it's as nice as the seller says. What does it weigh?
American Pacemaker gear-head tool-room lathe in perfect operating condition.
Lathe has 19" swing by 58" between centers and has a 7.5 HP motor. Provides 27
selectable spindle speeds from 30 rpm to 2000 rpm and 48 selectable threading
leads from 1.5 threads per inch to 92 threads per inch. Perfect hard ways are
made from 100% hardened tool steel and are replaceable (a feature common to all
American lathes). Head gears run under oil and one-shot oilers are provided for
ways, carriage and threading gear box. Everything works perfectly and machine
has like-new tightness and accuracy. Lathe also has rapid-traverse for the
carriage which allows you to rapidly move carriage back and forth by simply
moving a lever - great time saver when working on long pieces. Machine also has
a taper attachment and a built-in flood coolant system. Comes complete with a
3-jaw chuck with reverseable jaws, a 16" 4-jaw chuck, an 18.5" face plate, a
steady rest for up to 8" diameter stock, a follower rest, drill chuck,
micrometer stop, tool postl tool holders, boring bars, centers, etc. This well
maintained lathe is ready to use with no issues and would look like new with a
little paint touch up. Will load on your truck or can arrange for delivery.
