درود بر شما، با سپاس فراوان از فیلمی که به اشتراک گذاشتید، بسیار عالی، حدود سی ساله که آرزو داشتم چنین دستگاهی خودم داشته باشم اما مشکلات زندگی هیچ گاه این امکان را برایم فراهم نساخت، موفق و پیروز باشید
I got a PM1236 Lathe in June 2009. I use it~ every other day for ~ 1/2 hour. I have been through many iterations of replacing the 24VAC lamp. I do not should down the 220VAC to the lathe, so the lamp is always on at night. It replaced my Clausing 5913 that I was always having to work on.
I haven't bought anything from them yet, but I plan to in the near future. I will say that I had a question about one of their machines this last Christmas and they got back to me during the holidays with an answer. I'm lucky to even get a response from that company with the green machines...
I am way too late to go in the draw, only just saw this video. But, can I ask you? Did you do a follow up on the lucky winner to see how they got on? would be worth another video for that.
looked at one of the PM 14x40s because of some other Gunsmiths recommended them. BUT !!!!! it's 2K more than the Mac Daddy Grizzly with a 2" thru bore. that makes it tough to swallow, for the extra 2K you can buy a taper attachment and a tool post grinder for the Grizzly.
I got an email from PayPal last night saying the invoice was canceled. Was there a change? I didn't request a cancelation and I still want to participate.
Taiwanese castings ! Nice ! Their stuff is A LOT better than the usual Chineseum That is a very nice machine...it can follow me home any day of the week ! Wat does it have between the point ? 125 cm, 150? Paddy
It looks a bit bigger in the video.... (or maybe Stan is smaller than I image !!) but that said.... it still can follow me home any day of the week ! The Taiwanese have been casting metal (for the Chinese market and for export) for about half of a century now... and they have become quite proficient at it. I wouldn't go as far as to say their castings are on par with European or American products, but they come damned close in many a case! Good luck to the winner of this fine machine ! Paddy
Stan's about 6 feet as I recall, around 180 cm at a guess. Of course he will be a bit shorter sitting on a stool or chair. After WW II, machine tools that you could buy in the US pretty much moved from US manufacture to Japan, then to Taiwan, then to S. Korea, and finally to mainland China. I wasn't around when the US started making machine tools, but I have been around for the rest of the migration. In each case the country started out making toys and junk, then got better and started making moderately low quality but useful tools, then better tools, then very good tools. China isn't to this last step yet, at least not for export tools, but they are probably about 10 years away from making really good stuff. As a data point I have a 1980 Taiwanese mill-drill made by the "Go-Well Machine Company" that is amazingly bad, but was about state of the art at the time. By 1990 things were hugely improved.
The remark about Stan's height was meant sarcastically....and you're always shorter in Imperial than you are in metric (another good reason to dump that archaic system) It is the same story in Europe.... very few original manufacturers are left. From those who are left, a portion of them will build machines based on rough castings they import from Taiwan.... European built machinery can hardly be afforded for the home-shop machinist (new that is...). One basically has to sell both kidneys AND both cornea on the black market.... Which may, I dare say, make the enthusiasm for machining dwindle somewhat... Paddy
You will pay all shipping, tariffs, port fees, taxes and customs, read your enty before sending in your donation. It could get expensive to ship it internationally.
Okay, is this lathe if won, coming from Texas, or Philly?.. that makes a huge difference, from approx $1800 in freight fees from Philly, vs $4600 from Texas.... I may have to option out of this raffle, if the lathe is in Texas, I am not paying $4500 to $5000 for shipping for a this, Please do not mistake me for sounding ungrateful for the fun of this raffle, If it is at Texas, there is no need to refund the $5.00 raffle to me, consider it a donation for the cause, if it ships from Texas...Meaning, I wouldn't want to cause trouble and hassle, as it isn't cool to do such, for something that is designed to be easy, like pulling out a name from a hat to show a winner, but then if the winner can't or won't afford the shipping costs, then you folks have to go to the trouble of finding another winner... I do not desire to be the cause of that... ... Texas or Philly? lol
Lovely looking machine, would look great in almost any shop, especially one as clean and neat as yours. don't think that international shipping would work for that, unless you send it sea freight in a container, otherwise the cost per kilo would be incredible.
Where did they get Texas from? Last time I visited BarZ (from Texas) it was in California. And Precision Matthews is in Pittsburgh. These might sound a lot alike to some of y'all, but believe me, there is a lot of ground between them.

let me repeat, these people are customer oriented. you will get help. Precision Matthews.....top class individuals.

Dude ! YOUR TUTCHING MY LATH!
I am way too late to go in the draw, only just saw this video. But, can I ask you? Did you do a follow up on the lucky winner to see how they got on? would be worth another video for that.
Winner was you tube channel "through the bulkhead" he did a follow up on getting this lathe down into his basement.
I've had a Precision Matthews 11x36 lathe and a 7x27 mill for 2 years. Very satisfied with the equipment and the "service after the sale".
stan thanks for indertaking and ur time.
Got my entry in for this one. Praying that I get lucky enough to take delivery

I sure would like to have that lathe!
Dang! I'm 3 years late to try to win this lathe!
When will you get another coupon code from Precision Mathews?
Would anyone going to the bash have an instruction manual for a cincinatti Wide Range indexing head ?
13:00 Good thing there is the option to run the feed in the Longi direction.
Damn just my luck a year too late! 😁 my dream lathe.
grizzly, check it out, same ding
So, if Brad wins, will it be delivered in a very distinctive shade of pink?
Ohh man! Can't wait for the bash and we get a live feed! Stan, will the feed be on this channel?
Yes sir, the 23rd of this month.
I got an email from PayPal last night saying the invoice was canceled. Was there a change? I didn't request a cancelation and I still want to participate.
All non-responsive entries were cancelled 6-18-18 @ midnight PST.
When does the entry time end? Thanks for the chance to help out the bash, and maybe win.
Cuts off on the 18th, announced the 23rd during the live feed.
Taiwanese castings ! Nice !
Their stuff is A LOT better than the usual Chineseum
That is a very nice machine...it can follow me home any day of the week !
Wat does it have between the point ? 125 cm, 150?
Paddy
12x36 = 12 inch diameter work by 36 inches between centers, = 30 cm diameter by 90 cm between centers. One inch = 2.54 cm.
It looks a bit bigger in the video.... (or maybe Stan is smaller than I image !!) but that said.... it still can follow me home any day of the week !

@@gh778jk Metric sucks!!!
Dude you almost forgot about the articulating light
Stan, I can't get through to the address you provided. I tried several times.
I have others coming through just fine, copy and paste this --> lathe2018@barzindustrial.com
Are only usa residents allowed to enter?
You will pay all shipping, tariffs, port fees, taxes and customs, read your enty before sending in your donation. It could get expensive to ship it internationally.
Shadon HKW wheeeew... That will get pricey. Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated. Wish I could win, and afford to win, lol. Sigh.
This is the best give away. Cant wait for the next five away
Is this really an "Ultra High Precision" lathe? Can it boar aluminum down to 1 micron accurately?
so who won?
Ticket 601-L Jon Jeffries
Hi Stan great looking lathe.
Bill from Seattle
Stan you have close to 5 minutes of dead air at the end of the video.
Yea, saw that after the upload, sorry.
It's a feature, to give you time to enter..... ;)
Actually to make my escape!

I can get it anywhere in the Con US for under 300, dont worry :)

You can get a good sea rate if you don't mind waiting 2-3 months, you gotta know the right people in the shipping business (which I don't)

Must be my Texas twang >.
Hao math many to bay it
