Gold plated 9A

Definitely not in the same league as Phil's work - interesting scrape marks between the ways
 
Now,truly,you are getting well int Hardinge HLVH territory,and deep into Monarch 10EE prices for that nice paint job on the heavy 10.

IMHO, Those are hiding something like a gauge or scratches. In the used machinery terms "camouflage" or a "Chicago Job" on that part of the surface between the ways. It sure has a nice paint job. Looks like it is over priced a lot. When I used to sell a lot on Ebay I would sometime on the first ad I would put a super high price figuring someone might pay for that much. Next time the price goes lower.
 
seems to me the machine on Ebay is much better candidate to "gold plate". It offers so much more than a 9".
 
Can someone PM me Phil's e-mail? I accidentally deleted it from my work e-mail and I wanted to ask his a question.
