We are a very large shop consisting of many machines. 17 manual lathes 10 of which are Monarch 10EE. Some folks have it in their mind that these machines are no good and are looking for replacements, though some of these people have not run any poor quality lathe to compare with.
aside from that. What current manual lathes would you recommend for a toolroom/jobshop lathe? Price Is a non issue.
Hardinge would be next best in my eyes but I have not traveled the world.
I would hate to see these go but I am not in charge.
Thank you for your input.
