That's sold by several US vendors as the Shop Fox M1015.
Here's one: http://tool-corral.com/shopsite_sc/s...l/page115.html Scroll to the bottom. While all the other machines rate a photo and extensive description, the M1015 gets a part number and a price. Also Look on ebay Item number: 5994050800 - - Rex Burkheimer Fort Worth TX himog wrote: Where can I buy a Sieg C1 micro lathe? http://www.siegind.com/Products/br-c1-lathe.htm |

That seems to be it, but who else sells it?
I was expecting it to cost rather less than a 7x10 mini lathe. |

Because generally chinese lathes made by the same manufacturer tend to
have costs which are directly related to size. At least, within one distributor's stock this seems to be the case. Eg, Enco, Harbor Freight, etc. prices of Sieg lathes reflect that bigger tools cost more than smaller tools. |
