Thanks guys, it must be my lucky week. I just bought this radius turner and die grinder online for $90.00. They were even kind enough to deliver it to a hotel where a coworker of mine was staying. He will be able to deliver it to me later this week.

Now You really Suck ,Sorry but the whole world can't be wrong , going back for more and your friends (I use this term under duress) , don't get a shot at it seems just wrong .

So I went back and had another look at the Atlas 12" lathe. It's missing the compound slide and the right quick change gear lever is broken. The fellow is looking for the compound slide and will call me if he finds it. After looking at the bed ways I told him I would make an offer should he find the compound. The bed ways are in what looks like new condition, I couldn't find a nick or scratch on them which I was very surprised by, considering how dirty the rest of the lathe is. If nothing else I should be able to clean it up and sell it for a small profit as long as I don't factor in my time I also found a Kennedy tool chest, it was filled with a bunch of junk but also had a pile of endmills, large taps, starrett back plunger indicator boxed with all attachments and a last word indicator boxed up with attachments. Got the whole works for $60.00.
