Harrison lathe FS

I'm moving soon so I'm selling my Harrison L5 lathe... along with a lot of other stuff...

I bought this out of the Durham college, it was used for the 6th form A level so is in good condition. It came to me with a 400v 3 phase motor which I replaced with a 240v single phase and it runs OK off a 3 pin plug.

Includes a coolant tank and pump which I've not used.

A few tools to get you going.

It has an imperial powered screw thread that is useless these days! However it doesn't work so no loss...

£700

It's in the north east Hetton le Hole near the A1M J62. It's a big heavy thing....

Cheers,
Steve

Hi Coozer,

Sadly I no longer have the space for one, but a few photos may help to sell it for you - would certainly give people an idea of what it looks like (I did have a look in your photo archive, but didn't see any).

Cheers,
Nick

Just put all the pics up on Facebook..

I think it weighs about 5-600kg

Nearly broke my little 4ft trailer when I collected it and the teachers little crane rated at 1/2 ton struggled to get it in!

I've had the same issue myself!

Resizing and renaming the image files resolved the issue for me though.

Hi Steve
That's a great looking machine and must be cheapest in the country I picked up a little Myford recently from a bloke who's a turner by my trade but rebuilds British bikes to a very high spec. He wS turning his own valve guides etc I got a box of big tools which are too big for this machine here but would suit yours I could drop them off in next couple of weeks as I pop over quite a lot to see my Dad since my mother died.

I know it's no help to you, but I so wish I had the space, I also know you get a lot of wasters on Fleecebay but it would be snapped up on there

I collected mine on my little cars trailer, some decent straps and away you go.

Even when 50 years old these Harrison's can still be accurate as the beds are induction hardened, great machines

Hi Steve,

I have managed to pick up a Boxford BUD. Should be collecting it in a week or so.

Shame I missed yours.
