Those are neat little lathes, and that's as good a deal on them as there
is right now, I think.
I've had one, would buy another. Even though I'm lathe-poor.

Interesting trick I saw recently was a guy had one clamped whole to his
mill and was using it for a 4th axis.


Tormach has modified one to fit on their CNC mill table which turns it into
a CNC lathe. There are some shortcomings, but it's a cheap way to gain CNC
lathe capability if you already have a decent-sized CNC mill.
