Why all the negatives ?
I have seen people on this board buy worse for more money then go about restoring it.
OK broken top slide, not all the world, I for one don't have a top slide fitted to my lathe, rigidity is worth far more to me that a taper 4 times a year.
It's got about the same amount of paint on it that my TOS has and that thing is deadly accurate and guess what, it will have even less paint on next year.
Don't like it ? OK your prerogative, shell out and buy new with a guarantee.
