Hi Mark, Very nice lathe indeed, and rather difficult to find state side.

Where is the lathe located and what is the price you are after?

What vintage is it?

Is it on a stand or is it mounted on a bench?

You mentioned it has the long bed, what is the actual distance between centers?

Thanks!

John.

Perhaps this is the one?

That is the one. I bought it new in about 1994. 31" between centers. Located in Silver Spring, Maryland. $5,000. Must remove by June 31.

Gorgeous. Too bad it’s not over on the west coast.

Yes, I’m afraid the freight charges would be at least half as much again.

I’d take it and collect it if it were in europe. :frowning:

Beautiful lathe! How much was the freight cost from the UK to the US?

Mark, it was mensioned in another thread that you may be giving up pipemaking, and now that you are selling your lathe, it seems that it is true. Many photos of your work has been posted on the forum and your pipes look really nice and you are obviously a fine craftsman, so I was wondering why are you giving up pipemaking ?

My son and I are moving into an apartment. A nice arrangement has been made and the lathe is going to a good home.

Good luck with the move and I’m sure your pipemaking will be missed .
