I am not a machinist by trade. I have come here to learn (and eventually have my own hobby machine shop). But in the time that I have spent here, I have realized that some people think old American iron is worth near its weight in platinum. It's too bad, because anyone who truly believes a 60 year-old Lodge and Shipley lathe that is filthy and doesn't even have a chuck is worth anywhere near $12K is going to spend a lot of time waiting. Maybe he'll get the idea after the lathe sits for a month or two with no offers? I can only hope he does, but I tend to think he's going to have a difficult time selling it.
More like two extra zeros. Or one extra zero but $1,200 is what seller gives "buyer" to take it away...Maybe it's just "fat finger syndrome" and an extra zero was accidentally added.
Yabutt !"You can make gun parts with it".....
Seems to be a buzz phrase.
As has been said recently: "What's the matter with Kansas?"
As my distantly-related eBay fantasy, seen just this morning, and completely OT:
1969 Datsun Roadster | eBay
Having owned a Datsun roadster in an earlier life, I occasionally look to see what is out there. My god, this is out there.
