Hey everyone!
I recently picked up a 1965 Monarch 610 lathe I believe a 16x54 with assorted tooling and 3 and 4 jaw chuck. What is this machine worth? I know they are the cadillac of the manual lathe world but I'm primarily a cnc mill and lathe shop with some manual work. I have another 15x50 lathe with a ton of tooling which is usually more than we need and we dont really do any heavy material removal. The monarch is a beautiful machine but unfortunately is heavy and cumbersome for our current work flow. I like to be able to move equipment around, if we need to improve work flow so I'm thinking about selling the monarch and hope it can go to someone who is going to appreciate it and really use it. The machine came out of a naval machine shop and has DROS and various tooling. Just trying to get a realistic idea of what its worth so I know when I list it for sale.
