I am looking for a new metal lathe that is a little smaller then my old southbend 9x36 but bigger then the 7x lathes, this is due to space restrictions in my new shop. I am considering the PM1022V. PM1030 Has anyone heard anything about this lathe good or bad. I really like it due to the power feed being separate from the half-nuts, the cam lock tailstock, and the higher speed capabilities. Does anyone else have recommendations/reviews for any lathes about this size. My budget is about $1800.00
