I have read a ton on here, and researched a lot on various lathes, as I want to add a second one to my shop so my wife and I don't have to fight over the lathe.
I have pretty much narrowed my choices down to two lathes, both having a similar price and having features I want for the most part. I like different things about each machine. Id like any opinions on why or why not you would choose one over the other, as well as any input from users of either of these machines, especially the shopfox one, as I haven't heard of anybody with this particular lathe. So, please help me out.
