[QUOTE="frostop, post: 2999459, member: 22611"] I bought a 36" tida lathe years ago for $1500 that came with a fair amount of tooling, I also bought some tooling and made some tooling for that lathe. Recently decided to upgrade, sold that lathe for what I paid for it, some of the tooling that I bought and made went with it. Replaced it with a larger, brand new 1999 lathe here a month or two ago, I've been getting and making tooling and getting it leveled out etc. for the the last month. I enjoy working with the lathe, my grandfather and a couple of uncle were machinist. As others have said you will use the tools for other things beside gunsmithing, I built a part for my kubota tractor that has been on there for probably ten years that fixed a problem with the hydraulic oil filter on that particular tractor.
