I was almost too embarrassed to ask this question. I‘ve been reading the forum, post by post, for a couple of day now and I still don’t have an answer to the question.
So hear it goes.
I’m looking to purchase a new mini/midi lathe.
I’m currently turning on an old 750 lb 48†J-Line, and while it does a fine job I want to get a small portable lathe for small projects. You know pens, pencils, stoppers, yo-yo’s, and boxes.
As of now I’m not set on any one brand.
I probably won’t spring for a Vicmarc and I have a feeling that the $69.00 ones on eBay are no good. So I guess some where in the middle is where I will be.
I’m just looking to see what everyone is using and what you would buy if you were looking right now.
