Oh well, worth a look.  Craigslist searches are nice that they are relatively 
local.  The down side, if your local isn't suited for the search you won't find 
much.
Around here there usually are a few decent things to look at.

Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Question on DM860 stepper drivers

BTW, craigslist bombed on a lathe search, $2000 for a South Bend 14x30 
that had to be at least 80 years old, huge motor on a carraige 2 feet 
above the spindle shaft, and an almost skeletal looking headstock and 
bed.  Probably babbit spindle bearings to boot.  Nope.  Theres a 100+ yo 
Porter right here in town, 16x72 or such, sitting out in the weather for 
at least 3 years that I know of. Babbit bearings with a need for about 
1/8 inch in shim washers to take up the end play. Motor apparently 
failed and thrown away (or sold) at some point in the dustbin of 
history. $500.  He says the scrap iron is worth that but if so, why 
hasn't he recycled it? But while it all still moves, just the screws to 
ball screw it would probably be north of $1500.  And its as much too big 
for me as this 7x12 is too small.
