In the past we have frequently been in the position of having little or no inventory available since the number of orders exceeded the number of machines we were receiving. The situation has improved since 2008 and we now have F600s and F750s in stock for delivery within a short timeframe.

S1000s are no longer available in the US or Canada. The weak dollar and the continued increase in the cost of materials, manufacturing, and shipping have priced the machine out of the market. We believe that the many advantages of the S750 over the S1000 outweigh the advantage of additional swing on the S1000, even if price and availability were not an issue.

S750

S750s are priced at $6175.00 plus shipping from Saint Charles MO to your location. All machines are shipped from Saint Charles, regardless of which reseller you buy from. The price includes the stand, a 2 hp motor, and electronics with a full-function remote control.

These machines differ somewhat from those which have been imported in the past. They are supplied with a vector drive (an improved variable frequency drive) and an EMI filter which are mounted to the stand. The combination emergency stop and main power switch is mounted in a small box with a magnet so it can be located somewhere handy. The remote control is supplied with a magnet so that it can be moved to any of a number of convenient locations and has start, stop, direction buttons and the speed control. There are no electronics installed in the base of the machine.

F600s

The F600 is our fixed bed, shortbed 24" lathe. It shares most parts with the S750 but has a more traditional bed cast into the machine base. Please contact us for pricing and availability.

How to order an S750 or F600

Currently we have sufficient inventory so that we can ship within a week or so of receiving full payment by check or money order. While we accept credit cards and Paypal for accessories, we cannot accept these for machines -- the cost is just too great.
