Hi, all
I've been seriously searching for a lathe for about six months. In that time I've found about six that I was very interested in, but they all didn't work out for various reasons. Long story short, I'll be picking up this little beauty on Friday. I've got a few weeks off over the holidays and will be getting as much work done to it as I can, because in January I'll be hitting the road for work and it will have to sit for a few months. Obligatory pitchers:
I'm pretty excited; it's my first lathe and I am ready to make some chips! As you can see, it needs some work, so it will be a little while before it's ready to turn steel. I'm sure I will have some questions, so as they come up I will ask them here. (Any comments or questions about this lathe are welcome.)
