Plain turning viceroy removed from a college complete with BOTH STEADIES and chucks etc.

Currently at £250 Looks tidy and is 3 PHase so ideal for VFD

Re the 250 quid lathe, I offered the guy 125 quid for the steadies only, and told him he would get between 250 to 300 pounds for the Lathe with possibly a bit more with the steadies.
He got 278 Pounds in the end.
I think he lost about 100 pounds in the sale, but hey, he wanted to sell as a job lot, so he's happy.
If it had been a reasonable distance from Scotland I would have made an offer for the lot and sold the lathe on afterwards.

Hi Les

That was a fair offer for the steadies - I suppose being a college that just wanted rid of everything.
Lathe could have been a good candidate for CNC conversion at that price?

Cheers
