    Default Mini Metal Lathe - Little Use with all parts $250

    Hi all, selling the first metal lathe I bought as pretty soon after I ended up acquiring a much larger unit, so this has been gathering dust for some time. It's had extremely little use, and is in perfect working order bar two small issues, the gear cover has a crack on the rear right, which doesn't affect anything at all, and the handwheel on the tailstock broke off when sliding it into storage. As it's a round hole you could simply use any offcut with the spinning finger grip which is intact to make a new one, or they're about $20 or so new on Ebay.

    The unit is 180mm swing, and 350mm between centres. It comes with a pack of tooling, 4 of which aren't used at all by the look, as well as a 3 jaw chuck with internal and external jaw sets, spanners, allen key and the chuck key of course.

    Has a lever operated low and high gear and electronic variable speed, so no changing stupid belts!

    Low range is 0-1300rpm roughly, and high range is 0-3000rpm roughly.

    Pickup from near Mulgrave, $250 the lot!

    Darn it, wish that would be in Brisbane. Seems like a good deal.

    All yours then Matt, I also found some gears that I think go with this lathe for the automatic thread cutter/drive screw. You should have received a pm from me Matt.
