The Powermatic 3520B is a heavily built, 20" swing by 34 1/2” between centers woodturning lathe equipped with a 2HP variable speed motor. As you can see, this lathe is in near mint condition having seen only light use. Here’s the brochure from Powermatic on all of the features of this model: Powermatic 3520B. The 3520B has been replaced in Powermatic’s lineup with the 3520C, which retails for $5,999.

This lathe includes an aftermarket light from Oneway that retails for over $400. It also comes with a full range of workholding accessories, including chucks, centers, and spindle adapters with a total retail value over $2500. Here is a PDF list of the included tooling with pictures: Workholding Accessories

The total price for the Powermatic 3520B along with the accessories and workholding tooling is $4000.

If you act fast, delivery may be available for anywhere that can reasonably be considered between the lathe’s current location in Pagosa Springs, Colorado and Saltsburg, PA. Arrangements can also be made to make it available for pickup in Saltsburg, but only if the sale is made within the next three weeks, otherwise it will only be available for pickup in Pagosa Springs. If you are interested simply respond to this email, or email David at david@plumier.org. 

A full set of premium woodturning tools is also available for sale with the lathe, or separately.

This includes tools from top-self makers including Hamlet, Henry Taylor, Jerry Glaser, Richard Raffan, Robert Sorby, and more. Here is a full PDF list of the tools with their retail values: Turning Tools Inventory

The gouges and skew by the late Jerry Glaser are highly regarded. Jerry Glaser was an aerospace engineer and woodturner who pioneered the used of powdered metallurgy in turning tools. He also developed aluminum handles filled with lead shot for vibration dampening. His contributions to turning tools represented by these tools made in the 1990s are still considered state-of-the-art. These tools predate the current line of tools branded Glaser Hiltec. They were so distinct from the other tools on the market when Jerry made them that he didn’t think they needed any branding at all. 

The total retail value of this extensive set of tools is well over $5000. This collection is available for $2500. 

Both the lathe and tool set are a great opportunities for an experienced turner to upgrade their workshop to a professional setup, or for a serious beginner to skip wasting time or money on entry level tools. If you are interested, act quickly by responding to this email today! 

The sale of these tools through the Plumier Exchange earns the Plumier Foundation a commission. The Plumier Exchange also accepts the donations of tools or entire workshops. The goal of the Plumier Exchange is to put these tools into the hands of craftspeople who will use them while also supporting our mission of craft education.
