Yes, I am familiar with the Oneway. Although I have a large shop, I
would not have room for that rig. Also, by the time you buy all that,
you are way over the price of a Stubby 750, I think.

Hi Bill

/Snip/ - turning outboard doesn't let you do either. /snip/

It almost sounds like you are not familiar with the Oneway lathes
Bill, The real nice thing with the Oneway lathe is that with the
outboard addition, you have two lathes in one, a large over the bed
turning lathe and also a large outboard turning Bowl/platter lathe,
where you can start a large blank between centers if wanted/needed, I
added a direct link here to a Oneway lathe setup that shows you
exactly the double setup I am referring to.

if your intent is to mostly turn outboard on the oneway, you probably should
look at the stubby also - there is a real advantage to being able to start
with a tailstock against the piece, or to start between centers and adjust a
bit as you go - turning outboard doesn't let you do either. /SNIP/
