There is a seller in Connecticut who has 4 HNC lathes for sale (I am taking 1) for $1300 each. The lathes with full enclosure weigh 2000lb and the old
GE controls are another 800lb. Since I intend to retrofit, I will not take the controls for mine. All the power electronics are on the lathe
itself and all the units but the one I am taking are operational. I am providing a down payment on one, since I will only be able to collect
in more favourable weather conditions (which could be March 2009 !!)
The trailer I will take to collect the lathe will be able to fit at least 2, possibly 3 units. Since I am from the Napoleon area in MI, I invite other potential buyers in Michigan Indiana and Ohio to share the transport costs with me when I go to collect.
If you PM me I can provide contact details for the seller. You can also see his local advertisement here:
