Airco Torch Cutting Machine

admin

Hey yall!! Today, Im trying to sell my Airco "Radiograph". I dont know how old it is, only that its not currently working. The place that I got it from was in the middle of a big project when it quit, so they just ordered a new one. No one ever attempted to fix this one. Nor does anyone know whats wrong with it, who knows, it could be just as simple as a bad plug or a connection somewhere. The cord is done for, but that could have happened while it was sitting in storage. Im selling it in as is condition. It is complete, down to the tip in the torch. All the knobs and handles and switches move. The gas valves on the torch move freely, and the direction switch goes back and forth like it should. The only thing that doesn't move is the knob that adjusts the distance from the tip, to the work piece. Everything else is ready to go. Looking around on ebay, new imported units go for $1,400+. I couldn't find any airco units (working or not), so its not easy to price this one. Im open to offers, I want to get this thing out of my shop. So, offer away. I will sell the torch by itself (airco tips are abundant on ebay brand new), but I wont sell the track until the machine is gone, unless you want it with the machine. I am located in southwest Ohio for pickup, or the buyer will have to pay shipping plus $10 for packaging, etc. Have a nice day, everyone, and Im here for questions. Im also open to trades.[Account Abandoned 8/8/16 Please Do Not Attempt Contact Or Expect A Reply]. See you on YouTube! -ChuckE2009

Reply:I gotta ask.  What exactly is this?
Reply:The machine itself?? Well, lets say that you have a 4x8 sheet of 1/2" steel to cut. It wouldn't be easy to do by hand, and pretty much impossible, especially if you have to bevel the cut or something. So, you set up the track parallel to where you want to make the cut, and light the torch and get it set right, and the machine holds the torch and rides along the track and cuts perfectly straight, and at whatever bevel you want. Theyre fun to use, especially once the plate heats up and things get interesting.I hope that this answers your question [Account Abandoned 8/8/16 Please Do Not Attempt Contact Or Expect A Reply].
