Follow rest, carriage chip guard and bed clamp thing for Victor MDL1740/ 1760 lathe $250+shipping

[mattthemuppet]

For reasons I don't understand these pieces were on a shelf with other random tooling that I bought at auction, not with one of the two Victor MDL17" lathes being sold.

Anyway, it's been holding down my floor for long enough so I've given everything a tear down, clean and regrease. It all works smoothly, there isn't much wear and the paint isn't too ugly.

Follow rest

Chip guard and bed clamp thing

 

[mattthemuppet]

Price, $250 plus shipping from 78254. A rough guess on package dimensions and weight is 15" x 12" x 5" and 25lb, but I'd have to box it up first to be sure as final size and weight would depend on what wood I have lying around.

Pretty sure it would be able to go by UPS simple rate as a large or extra large box, so I'd guess between $30 - $50 for shipping. (That's just a guess though)

Summer Sale! $200 plus shipping

I bought that exact same follower rest about 8 months ago and modified it to fit my 15" Sheldon lathe. I thought it was from a Colchester lathe, now I know, it was from a Victor lathe.

Matt, If no takers on that bed clamp, I'll take it. Might be able to modify it to work on my 15" lathe for the taper attachment. If not, I'll find something it can be used for.

For sure!
