PSI Turncrafter Pro Midi

[simplepens]

I am sure that this has been covered somewhere at some time, but I would like to have opinions from this forum. I am looking to move up to a better lathe. I have my eye on two...the Jet Mini or the PSI Turncrafter Pro Midi. Budget wise, the PSI would be the way to go. Does anyone have one of these or used one? Were they good for the price??

Larry, I have one, and am pleased with it as a starter lathe. I'd like to move up to a variable speed at some point, once I sell enough pens to be able to justify it. Here are links to lots of great info:

Good luck with whatever you decide to buy!

Thanks for the links Jim. Looks like I may get the Pro Midi.
