Any ideas concerning the purchase of a lath for an entry level wood
turner?

The prices for the Grizzly sound "too good to be true"?

Any experienced turners willing to talk?


Conventional wisdom says get one of the "Mini" or "Midi" types from the
brand-name guys. Realize that your investment will be about twice what you
pay for the lathe itself to get turning, almost three times to turn anything
you like with convenience.

Closer to 3x
