How is that chuck mounted on your RT?? The 3-jaw I got for mine has a "skirt" around its base with 4 screw holes.? They match the 4 T-nut slots on the top of the RT.

Re: Used pricing

 

Was at Cabin Fever Expo this weekend.
A Harbor Freight 7x lathe sold in the consignment area for $500

Stuart Score steam engine.

 

I scored a Score at a recent auction.
The materials kit is complete.
It is missing all the paperwork.
I can get most of the information from the 10H kit.
?
But, I need the section on the crank shaft and the main body.
Every thing else is just 10H duplicates.
?
Can someone please assist?

Re: Used pricing

 

Back around 2000 Ebay was fun to buy and sell. After 2005 I stopped it had changed a lot.?
I did buy one item in 2016.?
The next is Because of Amazon low price and free shipping hard to sell?
?
I sell look but not nothing like the old days.?
The cost of shipping is a big problem.? Then a lot sellers are just there to make money today.?
It can fun?

Thanks.? Appreciate the suggestion.? Yes I can always come down a bit each month until they sell.?? Usually I put a bold "no haggling" to limit the #tire-kickers.
?
So the Grizzly is $855 plus freight on-sale right now (down from $950 plus freight).??? I have no idea if this is one of those "permanently on sale" type of situations??

The HF Mini Lathe (which I guess competes with the Grizzly?) is $799 list.? ??? I know there are no more 20% off HF coupons,? though maybe these items were always excluded.
Re: Used pricing

 

That is the approach I take when selling tools - along with checking for comps on Craigslist and ebay.? If you have time, I'd suggest a little higher to start, given good condition and ready to go.? Maybe 75% & 60% of Grizzly/HF and accessories costs.? You can always come down.

I've upgraded to dedicated CNC machines and was looking for suggestions on how to price mini-lathe (Grizzly G8688) and mini-mill (Harbor Freight) for sale.? Used but well taken care of.? Fully adjusted.

Each has a fair amount of aftermarket accessories such as MT#2 chuck, A2Z QC toolpost, ER32 collet chuck/collets, 4-jaw chuck --- power feed, belt-drive, air spring, rotary table (plus all original parts. Stand/table for each.?

I was thinking of starting out at 60% of Grizzly/HF new price plus 50% of new cost for the accessories.???

Is this realistic?? In the end it's whatever the local market (West Coast USA) will support.? There is a bone stock G8688 on FB marketplace with no accessories and some minimal tooling (worse condition than mine) for $1000 which strikes me as "highly optimistic".

Re: OS Rotary Table

 

I have B&S indexing head and a large rotarytable. But it takes time setup use then put vise back and dialing in.?
?
So a small 3" rotarytable I can put vise is great.?
?
If need down size and use have a mini lathe it fit in a milling
