What I would buy is a Legacy Ornamental Milling machine.
www.legacywoodworking.com If you are planning on a lathe, you should
see this machine first. Call for their free DVD at 1-800-279-4570

This is pretty heavy handed 'enthusiasm' for a product.
What... Did you get a new job? Arranged for kickbacks? g

A LATHE IS A WASTE OF MONEY AFTER YOU SEE THIS MACHINE.

Unless you turn bowls, pens, or simply enjoy using a lathe...
Not everyone wants to make 200 ornamental spindles.

FWIW,
