    Hi Paul;

    Don’t take this personally but that lathe is overpriced by a factor of ten at least…

    This model has been sold under various el-cheapo manufacturers for at least 25 years; HERE is a current one available delivered for $260.
    Nothing succeeds like a budgie without a beak.

    Hello This is what it's all about. Can't understand why people with no knowledge of, or interest in, woodworking decide to try and sell items on here rather than Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree.

    I get the sentiment, because yeah, the price on this is not realistic, but I'm glad this community gets a crack at the morticer Paul has also advertised. Which might be underpriced.

    I don't know about underpriced, I'm guessing it's likely 3 phase looking at the cable, if it is I strongly suspect that it will possibly be a hard sell despite any antique appeal.

    I've seen some fantastic and useful equipment basically sold for scrap purely because it's 3 phase.
