Hi all,
Picked up the new LMS 3536 8.5x 16 lathe at the UPS freight depot yesterday and got it off the truck here at home this morning. Boy, was it heavy, a little over twice as much as the Grizzly 7x12. It did not have the red goop on it as the Grizzly did. I've wiped it down and put power to it. Everything works just fine. It will be a day or two before I really know how it turns or how much adjusting I have to do. I did install the QCTP. It is steel in lieu of aluminum as on the 7x12. Any suggestions from the metal lathe members? Will keep you posted.
