it's lying un-used at the back of a shed near me and I'm considering making an offer.
I've had limited joy finding a copy attachment for the 2hp carbatec jobby that I already own which does everyithing I ask of it and would only really use this unknown (femco?) lathe for the odd job where I need to pump out many replicas of a hero.

any pro's out there know the machine or the brand?

and what do you reckon might be a fair price to offer on it?

or should I keep hunting for a cheap deal on a copy attachment for the carbatec?

thanks normell :) I have the timbecon stuff on my maybe list. I just thought I might get away with the lathe above as another option with the added bonus of not having to mount and de-mount the copy attachment every other day.
