I have decided to purchase the Harbor Freight 34706 wood lathe and the
47066 set of chisels.

I do think I will wait some time for a sale price and % off coupon to
lower the cost to me.

Thanks to all that made comments on my situation. I have learned a
lot already and don't even have a lathe yet. I also have lots of
websites bookmarked that will get further study.

Happy Turning

They have the above lathe on sale at the retail stores in this area
now for 199.99 and the 47066 lathe chisel set for 36.99.

I would be new to wood turning if I got these.

Would they be suitable for a beginner to see if I would even like
woodturning? I know they are not the best and many have a total
dislike for Harbor Freight tools. I have found for me many of their
tools are just fine, some are useless.

Now if they would come out with a 10%, 20% or bigger coupon this would
look even better.

I see people on EBAY selling Harbor Freight coupons. I emailed HF
about those and why I did not get them, I am on their email and snail
mail lists, and got a mealymouth useless answer as I expected telling
me no useful information.

Any comments on any of this is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
