[Bob Peach]

My wife saw an ad on a free board here in town, Man was getting his house ready to sell and just wanted it gone. I had to take it off the base to get it into my truck with help, chain fall in shop was necessary for me to get it out and assembled, very heavy!! There was a bunch of tooling with it'

Please comply with B/H's caution! Starks are high quality second operation lathes. If you are not aware of this site, here is some Stark info that you may find interesting.

Had to source a compound and collets and am currently n the process of fabricating a a countershaft. Just finished up building a bench for it.
