because i`m a glutton for punishment i went and looked at a 10L that was advertised locally - "the nicest one i`ve seen" according to the ad.
i get there and it`s on the floor, no drive,no motor, missing parts, unfunctional apron, lots of rust, compound is unsalvagable(ways were BEAT- literally)). small dials mangled by vise grips.
it had a taper attachment(missing tie rod and bed clamp and assorted hardware),a collet closer and a box of rusted-up collets.
but overall, it would be one that is worth bringing back - gears in good shape, spindle feels ok, halfnuts look good( but you can`t use them because the apron is partially frozen)
gearbox seems to function, not too much obvious bed wear.
and all this can be yours for two grand....firm.
have fun!
