Hey all, I've been lurking around and reading for a while but finally got around to making an account the other day. I got started turning pens while I was laid off from John Deere in 2008. Kind of had to re-focus my efforts elsewhere last summer but I finally got around to getting some lathe time in.
I use a Turnercraft 10" I got from PSI.....but as of 2 hours ago I just picked up a 14x40 Delta. My wife took me to one of the local woodworking stores and kept telling me to get a new lathe because I think I want to branch out and start working on bowls, turns out the bowl turner at Woodcraft just picked up a Nova lathe and was selling his (mine now) Delta for $350. This things a beast and I can't wait to get a little time on it once I get my work area reorganized.
