    Default looking for used machinery websites

    Does anyone have any good websites for hunting down used woodworking equipment? In particular, I'm hunting for a Powermatic lathe. I've been watching the classifieds in woodweb and sawmill creek. I use searchtempest a lot also. Any other suggestions?

    I should of mentioned that I am looking for the newer Powermatic model 3520. I want to do some bowl turning and the old model 45s and 90s just don't have enough swing.

    I see...
    FWIW, I have a Canadian General 260 lathe (25" diameter swing) and very happy. Super sturdy machine.

    just do a web search if you know what model you want. If anyone has that model for sale it will show up. put used in your search though.

    Thanks everyone. I eventually found a 3520A model on www.ncwoodworker.net which is a woodworking forum. Picked it up in Chapel Hill, NC yesterday. Now I just have to rearrange half my shop to make room for it!
