This is one I am trying to get. 750 sounds like a great deal. What do you all think? Please let me know!!!

Without knowing the first thing about the brand, if it runs and is aligned properly then its probably a good lathe.

Probably worth it. Go take a look, and ask if you can make a couple test cuts (bring your own stock). Other than that, it looks complete and comes with a couple chucks - you're pretty much good to go except for bits.

It looks complete and old school stuff is made well my concerns are is it dos'nt look very expandable beyond whats already thereThe beautyful things about old lathes is that there everywhere and old steele is very negotiable be choosy. If you must have this one I'd be a buyer at $300.00

Thanks for the information guys. I will probably pursue it, even if I have to do a little fixing up once I have it.

You guys are an invaluable help.
