I recently upgraded from my starter lathe and would like to donate it to someone who is wanting to get into turning calls and needs a friendly nudge to get going. The lathe that I am donating is a Harbor Freight 8 x 12 1/3 HP (
https://www.harborfreight.com/power-tools/woodworking/8-inch-x-12-inch-bench-top-wood-lathe-95607.html). The tool rest and tail stock are included, you will need to purchase a chuck system and tools. The lathe is used, but is in fine working order.
The way this will work, this will be done via local pick-up. Meaning, if you are willing to drive to my house in Maryland... it's yours. Please send me a PM telling me why you are interested and that you are serious about getting into turning calls. On 29 Dec. at 1800est I will make my decision and notify the lucky call maker!
Merry Christmas!
