Lowered price to $2500, you will have to move.

This is a real lathe able to do real gunsmithing work like barrel contouring, chamber reaming, threading, making pillars for bedding, making screws, cleaning rods, making/modifying custom dies, etc.

This is not a toy lathe/mill so step up, take a dip in the machinist pool.

well....I am moving from Fremont, to well....out of state If I was able to get it here by Tues...it would be the mover's problem to get it in my new work shop. what are the dimensions?
this would be like a 15 year old buying a car, knowing that in a year they will have a license lol...all the stuff I want to learn, but don't know squat now

Recently had one (acra 13x40) moved by a professional mover for $400, but next time will try on a U-haul low bed trailer for about $20 a day fee, need a fork lift to get it on the trailer then wood block it in to stop side movement and strap it down.

Should be ok way to do it on the cheap.

[shortround13]

You have a fork lift?

There are trailers that the bed will drop to ground level. I used one to move my mill. Used a come along to get it on the trailer and tied it off when I got home and pulled the trailer ou from under it.

It's probably around 2000 lbs. No forklift required. pallet jack, bottle jacks, heavy duty caster dollies is all you'll need.

Closer to 1200 lbs. These can also be moved easily with a couple 2x6 runners and some pipe rollers.

I was going to say pipe for rollers, a J bar and if the floor is smooth enough, ceiling wires work like a champ.
I've moved 6000lbs Liebert server room AC units through office building with ceiling wires and a J bar before.

[klewan]

What are ceiling wires?

I've moved a 1200# lathe with an engine hoist and a castered piece of plywood. Did the B-port with the black pipe and a pry bar which I think you also call a J bar. Biggest danger is how top heavy mills and lathes are; they don't want to stay upright. Would rather tip over on the side that ensures the greatest amount of damage....

What kind of lathe is it?
Where was it made?
Is the X .001 handle .001 diameter? Or .001 handle .002 diameter?
Is the X repeatable within tenths?

Thanks in advance
