I don't know how much you will like that turret layout with a tailstock. That's more of a chucker setup.

Thank you for the feed-back.
the controllers are also very old. osp5000L which people are warning me against.
my mills controller is 0m-a and while it is as old as the osp5000L it sound much more adaptable and user frendly compared to the okuma.
Someone comparing a Fanuc 0m to OSP-5000 isn't qualified to make the comparison, as there is not one to make. OSP controls are ahead of any Fanuc controls era for era, hands down. OSP is not Fanuc, that is all. There is not one advantage I can think of that any Fanuc control has over OSP.....Oh 1. easier to use multiple work zero's, (note I said easier, using 54,55,56,57 is easier and quicker---not impossible on OSP) thats the only one. And Fanuc is everywhere.

.....And Fanuc is everywhere.
Anyone know if the axis/tail stock need to be parked/secured for transport?
The sales guy reckons they don't need it. I'm thinking the axis wouldn't have brakes so they will just slide around if not secured in transport.
....I'm hard on the Fanuc guys when doing a side by side with OSP, but as always the biker from the 'couve and ewlsey make very good points.
Control preferences are a funny thing. Some folks get pretty worked up over the subject. I'm partial to Meldas for a few reasons. I usually don't advise them for others as the knowledge base is quite small. They are OK to run, and usually are configured standard with nice programming/operation features that are options from the F word.
Thanks Vancbiker.
can any of you lathe guys clear up my understanding of maximum turning diameter. I think the LB10 may be too small for the diameter i want to work with.
The manual lists the maximum turning radius as 150mm or 5.9", and x axis travel as 150mm (5.9").
is the maximum turning diameter considered with std OD tooling in mind or is it really 20mm or so less once you stick an OD tool in there?
