New To Me PM3520A

[Thomas Hotchkin]

I pickup a 4 year old never used PM3520A lathe last week, off CList it needs some work. The seller bought a complete truck load of Powermatic tools damaged in some trucking accident. The head stock took most of the damage, VFD, headstock clamp shaft, and some wiring. Tailstock hand wheel, lock handle. Motor is Ok had it into Scotty Electric Motor & Pump repair shop in Vancouver, Washington. Complete checkout 10 minutes no charge. Great customer service. This was second time I have been there and have yet to be charged for any thing. I got the lathe for $850.00 VFD $275.00 and handwheel and headstock clamp shaft, about $85 . Not counting gas I'm out $1210 for a new PM3520A lathe. I had been looking for a PM 45 or PM90, just could fine one that didn't need lots of work. Tom
