I am looking for a 22x 120 sized lathe in working order with tools and boring bar.
would really like to do a trade on lead. or cash if the price is low enough.

Dear Rick:

There are a lot of used lathes out there and some are fairly cheap.

One thing to watch out for is that lathes that have been used for grinding have "ways" near the headstock that have been worn down by the carriage moving back and forth over the grinding dust.

Just "Google" up some used machinery companies in your area. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to do precision work on a worn OUT lathe!

GOOD LUCK IN YOUR QUEST!
