Default The BEST lathe ever

had a logan 10": the best for me for learning and for a resonable
home/hobby lathe.

now I have a clausing VS13 which is much larger but oh-my- is it a nice
bit of lathe.

for eveyone who is pumping the 10EE and the Rivett stuff, how about
Hardinge HVLH? in my limited experience it's an amazing lathe. carriage
and ways built like a brick, incredibly smooth and quiet, and you've got
to love the quick in-out lever for when you're single-pointing threads.

That's my next step if i win the lottery!
