Oh man... that sucks.It's a no go folks. The seller ghosted me after previously confirming. Thanks for all the replies and input. Great group of folks on here! Maybe next time....
what are you talking about. The backsplash is not bent, it's not properly mounted on the tailstock end. And full of crap in the chip tray... ???? WHAT? that's a load of useless information.This thing looks like it's been beat to death. Rust is one thing, but the backsplash is bent/damaged and the chip tray is full of crap, not rust. And this is just a quick glance at those pics.
Have fun.
And welcome to the forum.
Oh man... you are correct!Adding insult to injury, looking at the side pic, there appears what may be a dro scale on the cross slide.
Oh well.

I can see the carriage DRO....
So did he sell it or just backed out of the deal ? I never was able to locate the lathe on FB if that's where it was listed .It's a no go folks. The seller ghosted me after previously confirming.
