Nova 3000 Lathe for Sale

Rudolf Vey

>I have posted this on the classifieds board, and now here for the turners.

I have for sale a Nova 3000 lathe (non-VS version)

The lathe was bought in April 2002 and was hardly used at all (I guess maybe 20-30 hours at most). It is in mint condition, it is a great lathe and I turned some nice bowls with it.

The swing is 16 inches, speeds are:

214/360/684/1020/1440/2160/2880/3600

The head can be swivelled for larger turnings, like platters or so, a special outboard attachment is available. More specific info can be found on the Woodcraft website.

The lathe comes with the following extras:

* 3" Stainless Steel Oneway faceplate

* curved bowl rest (Woodcraft system)

* hand wheel (yes, Novas come without one)

* spare belt

* short tool rest

* Super Nova chuck, with the proper insert for the lathe

This came with the lathe when I bought it: knock-out bar, live and drive center, face plate.

I want for everything above $ 700 (I think this is a very fair price considered the condition and that I spend about $ 1400 when I bought all of this). If someone is very interested but limited in his funds, I would sell as low as $550, but then I keep the chuck and the two extra tool rests.

My preference is a pick-up here at my house (SE

Michigan) if not too far, I could deliver; shipping might be too expensive due to size and weight.

Please contact me either with e-mail (rwvey@comcast.net) or call me at (734) 250 3815

Pictures are available per request, too big for here.

Some of us have succeeded in luring him deeper into the bottomless pit called woodturning!

Rudy just placed an order with a certain Canadian company that sells white lathes!
