I am looking at this:-
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lathe-Colc...-/231773982948
Seems well priced and lots of watchers. So assuming one of you bunch don't buy it from under me ....
Thoughts? They seem well regarded and perhaps a bit more modern / size than a Myford ML7.
I just spoke to the guy, it sounds like one of the top leadscrews is wrong and need replacing. It works but likely that the pitch was different when replaced.
Thoughts?
I dont want to start a China versus old British debate but would I be better off spending £1500 on a Warco VM250 with VSD? I have a Denford Triac mill already and would love a lathe to be able to do some of the parts Id like to do.
Thanks
