Went by a local auction (WA) to look at the goodies and there were about three lathes to be sold. One was an old bench mount that had no motor but was not in bad shape from the looks of it. Then there were two lying on the ground outside that looked pretty old but really solid. Nothing special but might be fun to play with. Ah well, I just don't have the extra bucks to do that, or the time to put into cleaning them up.
For those in WA they are at Stokes.
