Hi, I am new in metalworkings, I want to buy a small metal lathe as
for hobby. Does anybody use or own this lathe? Please provide some
advise.

That's a 5x10 and a fairly new product.

The Chinese 7x12 or 7x14 made by Seig is used by a lot of hobbyists.
There are a lot of places to learn more about it.

See http://www.littlemachineshop.com/ for a store that provides
accessories and support.

http://www.mini-lathe.com/ also has lots of info for the 7x10/12/14
mini-lathes and mini-mills.
