OK, I have heard from the Nova users and a few non-users.
It is only fair to ask what lathes you might suggest in lieu of the Nova DVR XP.
I have limited shop space (10'x10'), so a relatively small footprint. I can add mass. Power supply is not an issue. I want variable speed, and reversible at the minimum. The ability to add bed length is good. A swing away tail stock is something my back would love! I liked the outboard turning ability but it is not a deal breaker. Cost is at the very bottom of my list but I do not have inexhaustible funds! I want what I what for teh best price I can get.
Don't we all?
So, other than the Nova, what would you suggest?
