Hi All,
The wife, of one of our recently past members contacted me about pricing information on her late husbands tools.
She has a NOVA 3000 8 speed Mini Lathe – with Talon and Vantage Chucks, large number of face plates, tool rests, a steady rest, and couple other related attachments. It is mounted on a Craftsman Drawer / Cabinet Unit. All are in VERY GOOD condition. She would prefer to see these as a whole.
I'm not familiar with he Nova 3000 8 speed and would very much appreciate some suggestions on it's value with the combined equipment.
In addition to the lathe and immediate gear above he had a couple sharpening systems (wet and dry), vacuum system, carving and turning gouges, etc.. Again all in very good and some never used condition.
I can look through multiple woodturning catalogs for tool prices, do you all think 60% of retail is fair value?
I don't believe she want TOP dollar, however I do not want to cheat her either.
Appreciate any thoughts / feedback.
Thanks in advance, Happy turnin'
