Big, old, beautiful American Iron.
20” lathe, I am not sure bed length, I am GUESSING a minimum of 16ft between centers, but that is just a guess, I didn’t have a tape measure and I didn’t think to pace it off.
A friend asked if I could help sell this lathe, I don’t have a ton of details, but will find out whatever I can. I looked this lathe over in person, and for its age, it is in really nice shape. The flaking on the ways are nice the whole length, with no OBVIOUS wear spots. It is dirty and has some very minor surface rust. It is mostly filthy from sitting.
Biggest detractor! It is apparently missing the compound. It may be in the shop somewhere, but do not count on it. The shop it is in CAN load the machine. Machine needs to be moved out by the end of October, otherwise I’m stripping it and it’s going to scrap.

Will get more pictures loaded when I get home tonight.
Price is being determined, we are still trying to figure weight. We think it is 12,000-15,000 lbs. I recommend starting at $3500 and as time goes on we will go down from there.
