Cheap TOS lathe for Sydneysiders
On Facebook marketplace: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...17752266228890
Looks like it's an S28, very nice little machine especially at that price (TOS S28 Toolroom Lathe). If it was down here I'd consider buying it at that price even though I have the Graziano now - and if I didn't have the Graziano, I'd be hiring a trailer.
11x30 capacity, 1100 kg, 4hp and top speed of 3150 RPM.
Plain bearing spindle, and the bearings and some other parts may be available out of the Czech Republic (was looking at one a while ago in far worse nick with a higher price).

Thanks for that info, it looks a nice machine, the uk site gives a good description.
I have a 66 Macson which is good enough for my skill set.
Just need a mill of similar quality to pop up.
