How many lathes do you have?

[bnoles]

Will be interesting to see how many lathes the average turner has.

Feel free to list your models in the comments to add interest to the poll.

I have 3 in my garage right now but my first lathe (Jet 1236) will be leaving next week.

I voted 2.

3.....bought my first lathe (a Delta Midi) in August last year. Bought my second, a clone of the first, 4 months later while trying to finish a 50 pen order when one of the headstock bearings went south on me. Bought my third, a Jet mini VS, in April this year. My son (10 years old) uses one of the Deltas, I've got the other set up for buffing, and I primarily use the Jet now......

Jet Mini and Teknatool TL1200.

 

[hilltopper46]

1. Multi-purpose tol (sorta like a ShopSmith) that stays set up as a lathe
2. PowerKraft antique - I have used it - currently set up as a disc sander with tentitive plkans to make a buffer out of it
3. Delta Midi Lathe
4. 9x20 Harbor Freight Metal lathe (It counts because I use it to drill blanks when the blank is not much larger than the bushing and I really, really want it to be centered.)

 

[stevers]

Jet 1014VS mini and an older Craftsman full size. 12x37 or something, don't really use it much these days.
