I received this message recently. My mother passed and I found a 1960 (estimated date) Rek O Kut Vinyl Cutting Lathe in perfect condition in her basement. The model # is Imp-2. It comes in a very large suitcase and when I plugged it in, it came on. What do you recommend that I do with it? Thank you for the recommendation. The lathe is located in St. Paul, MN. Let me know if you are interested and I'll send along the details.
