Hi Everyone,
I am in northeast Louisiana. I have a complete Hendy metal lathe
that is over a hundred years old and in good shape. It has a bed of about
nine feet and I would guess weighs around four thousand pounds. It has more
than one chuck, etc. It needs to be moved ASAP and is sitting on my car
trailer. It will go really (really) cheap to offset anyone's moving
expenses. I want it to go to a good home. The Hendy company has a rich
history as it built much machinery for the war efforts. It will be a
wonderful piece when it is cleaned up and repainted. Patents back to 1892
are on the brass plaques. I also found a lot of information on the company
and a parts list for a 1902 model that is obviously a much later model.
This lathe could be beneficial to someone in the AMC hobby.
