How do you like that lathe and mill?
Would you recommend them to a beginner?

My old American iron is about the same size and capacity, and to me
about right for a home hobbyist, or maybe a small company model shop.
When someone asks we pretty much have to suggest equipment that is
currently available even if we prefer the oldies.
