Lave for sale on craigslist......

Seriously? Every other person thought the reason you posted that was to show a picture of a lathe? I got a good laugh out of that. Excuse me, I mean I got a good lav out of that.

It may take a good bit of elbow grease and a phase converter but I think it's well worth the price. Fixes up it's probably worth five grand. They obviously don't know what they have calling it a lave.
 
"to many extras to list"

Is craigslist charging money for extra words in their ads now?

And it's too, not to.
 
If you look closely you will see rust on the ways and all other sliding surfaces. Chuck also badly rusted. Either stored outside or not cared for.
 
Not too far gone to clean up into a decent home shop lathe at $500. Just don't try to make jet engine parts with it.

Chuck probably not original though; it sticks out far enough to defeat the purpose of the gap in the bed.
 
I'll bet every one of you here has a word that you've never seen spelled out on paper, ever, in your life, and that day you finally needed to write it down, you just went for it and wrote it out how you thought it was pronounced.

So let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.
 
If it's 220 three phase all it would need is a neutral and a ground to make a 120V outlet. Any one of the three legs would give it the 120v.
 
Way way back in school I wanted to write the past tense of take, and I couldn?t for the life of me. Started out with toke, and well that wasn?t right.
I just couldn?t get there, I think I had to change my sentence and get away from the word.

It sure ?took? me a long time to get the right brain cell fired up again.

But it is a funny ad, with the other stuff mentioned. But then I laugh at myself a lot, too.

Heckmondwike, Yorkshire. Wow. I've actually been there, if you can believe that.

Right. But most industrial three-phase applications do not have the neutral, and the equipment is frame grounded. By the time you run an extra wire to your neutral bus, you probably are better off just wiring the light and recept separately as a 120V circuit.

Three words, "machine tool transformer".
 
Well, I had to look. One word for that--scrap. Lacks V ways, has very little clearance over the crossfeed. Not a real handy machine for general shop use. Sad but that is the reality. May have been designed for specific jobs, like machining shafts.

I'll just leave this here: spellcheck. There is no longer an excuse for misspellings except laziness.

My first lathe was a Star. Being in Geneva, I thought you might find that interesting.

My spelling is so bad that often Spell Check can't get it.

Yeah, I thought this was a funny place for anyone to be making fun of someone's spelling or grammar shortcomings, you don't have to look very far here to find as bad or worse.

It's okay here though 'cause everyone can figure it out, right?

I often have great difficulty trying to decipher the message some posters on here are trying to communicate. That's why it bothers me.

Oh yeah, and just try to criticize the spelling/grammar of one of these forum members...
