Hi
Im thinking of trying my hand at
wood turning, I was thinking of
buying a cheap lathe first just to
see if I like the hobby. These go for about
£100 on ebay...


For £109 you can get a new Jet mini-lathe, the discontinued model before
variable speed. MUCH better quality, and resale value.

Just to show what it is, you'll probably find it closer to home--if you
do purchase through this link, I would get a tiny commission as an
affiliate. It would be my wages for efforts on our AAW chapter website.
Pretty sneaky, eh?
