Last Christmas I received a Rikon lathe for Christmas.
I love it, it has worked great for me.
What I am missing is I'd like to have variable speed without swapping belts, and I'd like a bigger lathe.
I think I'm hooked on turning but would like to do some bigger things as well as pens. I'd like to do bowls as well.
Suggestions on an upgrade lathe with variable speed that I could also turn bowls with.
Unfortunately price is always a factor, but I'm not beyond waiting and saving longer to get a good product.
So what I am looking for is recommendations for my next lathe.
Thanks
Scott
