Hi,
I think I am going to step off of the cliff into the abyss.
I intend to purchase a lathe. I have been looking at new in all the usual places. Glenn, my son, suggested that I try the FWW classifieds for used.
Since I am new to turning, this is the way I am looking at it.
I would try a mini if the deal was really fantastic.
I would prefer mid-size.
I would be thrilled with a 12 / 36.
I have looked at the Woodtek at $1,400. However that dollar amount scares me since I don't know what in the heck I am doing. Also, I will have to spend quite a few $$$ for tools, chucks, face shield, etc. no matter what I buy. If you have something, give me a call (760-529-2392), email <jandmbradley@cox.net> or 1561 Havenwood Dr. Oceanside, CA 92056
Enjoy,
Jim
