Hi, I'm new here. My name is Wes and I am looking at purchasing this
lathe to replace a little mini lathe I currently own. I joined your
site to learn about the lathe prior to bidding. I do have a few
questions if I might.
What should I expect to pay for this lathe?
Would making a new countershaft set-up, or finding one be an issue?
How about mounting one from a different lathe?
What is the size of the MT in the tailstock?
Will 3C collets fit the headstock? Do the collet closers look complete?
Any idiosyncrasies I should know about Dalton lathes that might not be
obvious?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Wes
