Craftsman lathe for sale

I have a Craftsman lathe for sale- full size bed and stand. It is variable speed and the head can be turned for outboard turning. All tools and accessories are included- Lee Valley economy set of tools (9), a couple of Henry Taylor tools, some Craftsman tools. A Steb center, the Wolverine sharpening jig…and some other stuff. It needs a bit of work (gotten a bit rusty, but still runs really well).
Paid $1000.00 for everything, asking $300. Lathe is about 8 years old, and hardly used.
It’s big, so you will need a truck or van to get it.

Craftex Lathe and Tools for sale

The lathe is a Rockwell/Beaver 3400 36" gap bed lathe from back around 1978. It comes with the bench, motor, switch and plates shown, and includes the pamphlet manual which came with it (not shown in photo). It does run, though it has not been used since the original owner died back in 1990.
The woodturning tools break into two loose "sets": 5 Craftsman gouges with brown wood handles. Left to right in the close-up photo of the blades provided, there are no markings on the blade of the left-most tool, but the others are marked, left to right, as #2858, #2856, #2862, and #2851. In each case, the number is followed by a "D".
7 High Speed Steel tools with pale wood handles. Left to right, in the close-up photo of the blades provided, identifying codes are:
#46-125 1/2" blade, unsure of named type
#46-127 1/2" blade, unsure of named type
#46-122 3/4" half-round
#46-126 3/8" half-round
#46-121 1" long-cornered
#46-128 1/2" blade, unsure of named type
#46-124 1/2" blade, unsure of named type
Looking at these as good but not top-grade tools, likely to need sharpening more often than present-day equivalents, I'd like to price them at $10 each or a total of $120 for the lot. All are near enough razor-sharp at this point.
The woodcarving chisels also break out loosely into two groups:
First is a "box set" of blue-handled Stanley 5002 metric chisels, in a box my father built for them, with a whetstone included. The chisels are, in size order:
32 mm, 25 mm, 19 mm, 16 mm, 12 mm, 10 mm, 6 mm
There are another 4 chisels of the same type in this box: one 38 mm, two 18 mm, and a 12 mm. These have plastic end sheaths; those the box was built for, do not.
Then I have a collection of loose metric chisels, as follows:
One blue-handled Marples chisel, 31 mm".
One black-handled Sandvik (Swedish) chisel, faintly marked as 18 mm but actually 17 mm.
A group of four red-handled Footprint chisels, sizes 24 mm (marked 26), 19 mm, 12 mm, and 6 mm.
I'd like $300 for the lathe, bench, and motor, $120 for the woodturning tools, and $100 for the chisels with box and stone. Open for best offers in all cases.
I can be reached either through Email
or at (613) 248-7280 (work – est. 0700-1530h daily – voice mail available)
or (613) 726-6572 (home – voice mail available)

Lathes and saws for sale.

Joanne Williamson has a connection who is looking to sell used industrial wood lathes and saws. I understand that the seller is considering a price of $800 or so for each piece of equipment, which are apparently worth much more. These are located in the Stittsville area and pick up will be required. A crane may be needed as they weigh about one tonne each.

If you are interested or know someone who may be,
contact Joanne on her cell phone: 613-884-2104.
