Atlas TH54 10" x 54" metal lathe - well restored, extras - $3100

This is your classic case of "lipstick on a pig". (No offense intended to those who may own an Atlas). That's a $1000 lathe (if that) on its best day.

Hey! I resemble that! But as an Atlas owner, I have to reluctantly agree. With the custom add-ons, it's worth more than $1,000 for sure. But the new owner asking for $3,100 is out of line. If he could advertise it as a former YouTube start then that might get him a premium! ;-)

I guess the other thing we don't know is what is included for tooling.

Those proportionately huge modern handwheels kill it for me.
Without them I could almost live with it IF it wasn't so very overpriced.

I remember this lathe from a CL ad posted on here ages ago - the DIY QCGB makes it stand out.
