Boy is it heavy compared to my 12" Atlas,the seller says around 1200lbs and it looks it.
Guys I posted bout week ago about should I or shouldn't I purchase this over the phone,which I did commit to buy cause the seller I felt was very honest,did most of the talking without me asking questions and said if I did not want it he would take it back and no problems.Today he drove from Austin to Humble to see a friend then headed north to beautiful down town Porter(humor) to deliver the lathe and help unload it,just don't get any better.Now on the threading plate it says its a 13" and on the ways is MchNoF3 58656 is the only numbers that I can find.On the cabinet where it would say I guess is "Student" etc which is missing,but under the ways is a sticker saying "Induction Harden Ways"not the flame harden ways.
Its nasty,its not pretty,its oily and not rusty and it has a taper attachment which is complete and came with a 3-jaw chuck and a 4-jaw Buck chuck which is a Ajusta chuck(I think is the name) and can be adjusted one way or the other about 1/32,seller says it sells for alittle over 500 mark.If you know the proper name please let me know and if you have a diagram of the chuck please send it,it needs taken apart and clean.
