    Lightbulb want to buy a lathe in u.s.

    We are looking to buy a cnc lathe. It needs at least 20" of swing. we hope to get one that has been taken care of, and it would be ideal if it were in close comparison to our old 1986 Monarch Metalist lathes with ge 1050hl controls that we already have. If not, due to our lack of experince, we would need help with a post processor for it. We have two of these machines, and it would be great if we could buy a third identical to the two we have. I know they produced hundreds, and ther has to be another one still around.

    I may have the machine for you. A friend of mine in AL as the perfect machine for you. If you wouldn't mind sending me a PM with your contact info, I'll pass it on.
