    Default Vicmarc VL100 Mini lathe

    I have for sale an old Vicmarc VL100 Mini Lathe. It comes with just the basic accessories (drive centre, live centre, knock-out bar, small face plate chuck, and 2 different sized tool rests). The lathe and motor are mounted on a board so it can be used on a workbench or saw horses and then put on a shelf or under a workbench when not in use (for those woodworkers who have a small workshop). The motor is the original Italian 0.5HP Lafert 240v motor that drives a 6 step cone pulley connected to a matching pulley (on the lathe spindle) via a tripe V belt. The lathe is in good working order but cosmetically, the lathe and motor have staining from the application of surface finishes, the paintwork is chipped in a few places and there is the odd small bit of surface rust - but not on the machined metal surfaces.

    This is not an auction. The buy-it-now price is $370.

    Collection is from Aspley in Brisbane.

    Please post "I'll take it" if you would like to buy it. Thank you.

    Does it have a 24 pin index? I could be tempted if it does.

    Default VL 100 details

    Mobyturns, the lathe does have the 24 pin index.

    Big Shed, the spindle thread looks to be 1 inch.

    Thanks, but that rules me out.

    Woodchopper, I have sent you a PM to see if we can arrange transport options.

    Default I will take it

    Woodchopper,

    I will take it at the $340 as it looks like transport is all OK.
