MDF Rose Engine for sale

[Fred Bohle]

This is a hybrid combination of a V1 MDF Rose Engine lathe with V2 electronics. The lathe was originally built as a V1, then the stepper motors were added. I put a metal sheet over the bed to allow use of magnetic positioning. I added two Parker-Daedal linear positioners at right angles to make a cross slide with stepper motors. If you are not familiar with the MDF Rose Engine, a tremendous amount of information about it is at https://mdfre2.colvintools.com/ I have 9 rosettes for it. It has an overhead drive for your cutting frame.
I am located in Orlando, FL. I am asking $3000 for it.

My curiosity has gotten the better of me. Would you be willing to share with us why you have decided to part ways with this fine looking piece of machinery?

I am going to get a Lindow Rose engine. I don't need the MDF Rose engine once that one arrives. also want to defray the expense.
