picking it is "easy" compared to shoving it through a door with a 6" step and not tipping it over. It'll be a tight fit through the door in the first place, unless the boom could pick it from the middle somehow, under the head, without it being too top heavy to want to just flip over. Because that'd REALLY suck.

this guy still has it- hasnt had a single interest in it for months.

http://buffalo.craigslist.org/tls/3665311723.html

looks like a smaller lathe- but tons of good tooling, and a good starter.

cant beet the price. 

i was looking at options in the shop last night.  i have alot of shit- i think if i loose the bench by the door, a bridgport would fit just fine :) and put a smaller lathe on the middle bench.  That way my bays arent killed.  move the bolt bin to the front wall.

power was my first question im waiting on- mills are easy though with phase converters. 

also asked on tooling and a vice- shit gets spendy when starting out.


power x sounds like- im not really a power feed guy- i tend to do stupid things that i need to have the "feel" to stop

19.5 fit on mine with the rubber attached.  Those were 265's even.  I will have to dig out the pics of me moving mine.  The guy thought it was quite amusing.
