Looking at a Vega 1553 48” bed that comes with a duplicater, 6 and 8” faceplates, 2 S stlye 1 straight tool rests, woodcut brand bowl cutter, spindle steady rest, about a dozen cutting tools, and a few bowl blanks. Questions: Age-serial # 1492?, doesn’t have a threaded spindle but excepts tapered, 1 hp motor 2 speeds, currently wired for 110- can I convert to 220? Vega’s website shows this lathe to be 4500$ with 2hp and 1 1/4×8 tpi spindle I can purchase for 1500$. It appears to be nearly unused and solid. Am I missing something or is this a steal? Any info/advise would be appreciated. Thanks |
