I am offering a gorton 3-u pantagraph for cue inlay work.
This machine is very accurate and in great shape.
I have a bed , 5c collet indexer , dove tail slide rack , and tailstock for this machine that is included in the purchase.
All that is left to do is the purchasing of stylists and milling bits to make the set up complete.
I also have 2 of Hightowers inlay templates with several designs on each that go with the machine.
I am asking $2200.00 for the whole set up with pick up only.
I except paypal / postal money orders.
This is a great machine that can do alot and was built for reliability.
Also Blud builds a cnc set up for these that is very nice add on.

Thanx ,
Jim
 
Here are some pics I took a few days ago for those who wanted to see the machine.
Thanx,
Jim

I'm sure it's not the price of these two machines that is stopping a sale as these are probably the most accurate manual panto mills ever made. Most people on here are hobbyist so setting up for cue work may be difficult for them without instructions and many all ready have a way for installing inlays. The market for manual iron, other than bench lathes, as so many machinists would like to have one in their home shop for side work, has dried up since the advancement of CNC. Most all machine shops have dumped their manual machines to be able to compete with other shops using CNC. However I believe the biggest problem you are having moving this equipment is the size and weight. Takes up to much room, is to heavy and local sales only.

By the way, did you know that the original inventor of these machines, Gorton, once trying to show how accurate his machines are, engraved the entire lords prayer on the head of a pin. It's in the Guiness Book of World Records.
