Hi,
Depends on what you want to use the lathe for? The amount you have
will buy a really nice Mini lathe (like a Jet) with some tools and
assc. or maybe a nice chuck.
If you are looking at a full sixe lathe... Delta has one for around
700 bucks.
I would also consider grizzly. the have some full size lathes that
dont cost hat much and they will ship to you. You might want o check
out there webiste.
