Anyone heard of Lantaine lathes? Seems to be good things said about em
on the net.

There's about a zillion names on those asian import lathes. All about
the same, IMHO. Tell your friend its a work in progress, with some
tweaking it will likely meet his needs.

Now for you and I, that have used REAL AMERICAN IRON, we wouldn't be
caught dead hauling this thing to the trash heap.

Just my uninformed two cents worth.

Ive been trying to find him a 9x18 SB...but they are few and far
between out here in California..when they arent worn out.
