:ddb: :ddb: Well I've been very naughty and indulged myself. :ddb: :ddb: A fellow in the USA has been advertising a full set of static and powered tooling that had originally been purchased brand new many years ago to kit out a Traub lathe for a particular task. The lathe proved to be a pile of poop and went back to the dealer, and this chap got left with $30K cost of tooling. The ebay advert kept popping up at irregular intervals and the kit didn't sell at his starting price, so I put in a VERY silly offer having worked out that there's 80 lbs of tooling to move across the pond which carries a fair price tag! ($240 is lowest quote I've had) . :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Anyway amazingly my silly offer has been accepted :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: The swivel angle powered tool is particularly attractive and I shudder to think what it would cost now new (Pictures are from the ebay advert) |
