No this is the heaviest thing they ship for free:

http://amzn.com/B0064BFJ3W Item Weight 8,514 pounds

u/fuzzypickles0_0s · 18 pointsr/Boise

Finally, same day shipping on that lathe i've been wanting.

u/socialisthippie · 18 pointsr/magnetfishing

I mean, you can get this 6700lb (3000kg) lathe shipped free on Prime:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0064BFJ3W/

Though, to be reasonable, the shipping cost is probably built in to the price, considering it's the price of a new car.

u/menocaremuch · 9 pointsr/interestingasfuck

Here's an 8500 pound machine that has free 2 day shipping with Amazon prime

Bluetooth radio transmitter $49
My mp3s are on my phone in my pocket. I get in my car and push play on the bluetooth transmitter, and the mp3s play from my phone to my car radio, all wireless.

For $199 you can get a mini cnc lathe

And everyone's favorite:

Remember your going to needvthe rest for tooling. Dont waste your time on combo machines.

u/David_Westfield · 4 pointsr/whatisthisthing

Carbide cutting tools/bits for a lathe

u/mchnikola1 · 3 pointsr/gunsmithing

Agreed, I personally found that Grizzly /u/heronmarkedblade1984 mentioned to be very apt, to the point where I wish listed it.

Here's the listing url: http://www.amazon.com/26x80-Geared-Engine-Lathe-8-inch/dp/B0064BFJ3W/ref=sr_1_12

How is it possible?! Two days?!

This weighs a little less than a BRZ and they were offering Prime shipping when it was for sale :D They delivered it on a flatbed.

This one weighs 3 BRZs and it's free shipping, but no prime :(

u/scottwhere · 3 pointsr/whatisthisthing

You are correct. They are carbide tipped cutting tools for a metal lathe. They are to be held in a tool holder on the lathe.
I think this is your set.

From Atlanta.

So, I've been grabbing hardwood logs from where ever I see trimming being done. I often seal the ends with paint or poly and let em sit for a year or so before milling them. Now I want to work with them by making them into staves via end to end 1"^3 tenon and mortise joints, then work them on the lathe I just ordered but haven't received yet (SOON).

I also miss no opportunity to dumpster dive or rummage through piles of old furniture or scrapwood.

Please identify if you are able:

More impressive is that if you touch your phone is just the right spots you can have this

26,000, three and a half ton lathe

delivered to your house from smile.amazon.com and the shipping is free!

u/Canadianstig77 · 1 pointr/funny

How about a full size cnc machine?
