Any experience with either of these lathes?
14'' x 40'' LATHE WITH 6'' SANDER
or
12'' x 33-3/8'' WOOD LATHE WITH REVERSIBLE HEAD?
The 14" sounds good until you take a close look at its lightweight
square tube bed. Take a pass.
I have the 12" lathe and it has served me well for bowls, spindles and
pens, etc.
It could use a lower speed for larger diameter work, but, even so, it is
worth the money.
You are not buying a first class lathe. But it will spin wood around and
around and around.
