Squidy Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) Hey everybody,My father was cleaning out his garage and gave me this large box of lathe bits he has been collecting during his 70 years. He said he always wanted to learn use a metal lathe but never got around to it.. I have about 140+ bits (few cobalt few steel ext.) in various conditions new-old for sale. I don't really know much about these but a quick search on the internet leads to a 10pc kit for around $20.00.I figured I would toss them up on here because I know there are all flavors of people on here. Asking Best offer for the whole box.Pics: Edited March 29, 2010 by Squidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheezle Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 How much for all of them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd#43 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Might get $0.20 a pound for scrap value, but that's about it.Inserts have replaced these relics.Yeah....on a good day you'll get about $0.07 per pound. Last time I checked scrap mixed steel was only going for about $125-$150 per TON.Find a guy that's got a little lathe in his garage. He'll take them off your hands.
