Hi all,

Ask Mark Wieber for one. He has dozens that mysteriously "appeared" in
his "shop."

Ha! I fix machinery in machine shops and stumble across lathes now
and then.

First question..what are you going to be doing with your lathe?

Will you be making tiny little RC drone parts..or will you be making
rear end parts for coal mining trucks..or somewhere in between?

Give us some idea of what you plan to use a lathe for and we can find
you something.
