I've been on the search for a Lagun ftv-4..
There's TWO at an auction in Denver. Bit of a road trip. I'd gladly pay
somebody to go inspect it, take a bunch of pics, and talk to me over the
phone while you're in front of it.

Sheesh, you are complaining about 870 miles each way for a quickie road
trip? At $3.50 a gallon for gas?

Ask for Joe or Mike, tell him Gunner the OmniTurn guy referred you.
Thats a BIG freaking mill. Even I nearly need a stepladder to run it.

Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional,
illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an
unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the
proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

You should see one make chips. Do you know, for sure, of the condition of
this unit? There's an FTV-4 on eBay, reliable tool, right now. looks like
they did a super job cleaning a beater. I almost contacted you for an
inspection of that unit.
I shook hands with a fella to buy my Bridgeport just as soon as I get a
replacement mill. Plus, my son is laid off right now. I'm buying gas to
anywhere in the good old US of A to pick up a nice FTV-4.

Im not sure, for sure, but it was under power when I was in there
last. No one wanted to use it, because they are all short latinos, and
needed to stand on a box to run it.
Give em a call and see what they say
