I had been watching for one of these lathes for a few years. This one appeared on Kijiji in Brockville Ontario, about 40 minutes from my place. I saw it first on Sept 1/14 but didn't have the money, but I got a break and money came in in time to buy it on Sept 3. I knew it was almost like new, but I didn't know how sweet a deal it was until I got it home and saw all the little goodies that came with it. The Delta disc sander attachment was a bonus, plus 2 chucks, various centers, face plate, knock out bar with replaceable brass tip, anchor rod for the morse taper sanding disc and polishing arbor, and 14 chisels. The Beaver cast iron stand was another bonus.
