Hi All

I have a Myford M Series 3.5inch centre Lathe that was my fathers and my grandfathers before him. Unfortunately, I am not wise in the ways of the Lathe and think that I should sell it someone who could put it to use.

The only thing is I don't know how much it is worth - can anyone offer some advice? I've seen prices ranging from £250 to £1000 - am confused!!!

As far as I can tell it is in good condition, I'm not sure what accessories it has with it, but I do have the instruction manual, accessories list and a book called "The amateur Lathe" by Lawrence H Sparey, 1950 (though in typically fragile condition!)

Help appreciated.
