Hi Guys,
I have been looking to purchase a small lathe to make small custom parts for vintage motorcycles, primarily mild steel, stainless and aluminum. It's not something I plan on using everyday, but probably a couple times a month.
I have the opportunity to purchase a Junior 8"x36" (308-Y) South Bend Lathe. The seller is asking $800, and he said everything works as it should.
I don't have a ton of knowledge about this specific lathe, so I was hoping to get feedback on whether or not this is a good/decent deal.
Thanks,
John
