I have been down this road several times, and drove myself nuts researching the most popular ones (incl. PM).
I think I may like to learn how to use one, make some threads, turn some pens, etc.
I have the tooling to make kitless pens on a wood lathe and I have done it several times. I was hoping a metal lathe would make it easier and more precise. I am not looking to start tinkering with anything to make it do the job that it designed to do. I am far from a machinist.
I am really just looking for opinions on this lathe: LMS 7 x 16
Thanks!
