another make i have never heard of
this is part of why i look at craigslist

https://sanantonio.craigslist.org/tls/5397792520.html


looks very well robust

the motor on that is large


Brent English (owner) makes a great lathe, The American Beauty has been
my dream lathe since I saw S/N 2 at the Portland Symposium years ago

I learned of it only recently. I have a General 160 that I power
through a jack shaft for lower speeds and it seems to be causing
problems with excess vibration.
I'd like to upgrade to one in the Robust/Oneway class. The Laguna
appears to be a good but less expensive alternative.

Laguna are made by the Burt Group (China), the same group that makes
Grizzly, Harbor Freight, Busy Bee, Master Craft and many other "import"
brands
