Hello DYI people
Ive noticed that there are quite a few people on here that turn out some pretty good looking machines. As the title says Im looking at purchasing a lathe for my work shed & would like to hear for anyone that either own a lathe or have access to one the you are familiar with the operation of. I have to stay with 240v as thats what my shed is wired for and I would like a machine with around 38mm spindle bore size and powered cross feed as well as quick change G.box for the leadscrew & threading. I would appreciate anyones opinions & experiences on chinese vs tiawanese vs secondhand english, aussie, japanese, american made.
