time to buy a lathe
I'm in need of upgrading my big lathe...
"The Kid" volunteered to take the old one, so at least I have room. I used a leblond servo shift many years ago and loved it. here's a leblond- regal http://tinyurl.com/9tls68g "The Kid" thinks a Clausing would be way better http://www.ebay.com/itm/271079709597 I'll go look at lathes this week, may find a few more. I'm only buying in the MN area because I can look at it and pick it up, no truck expense. Anybody have comments or comparisons on these two lathe models? Any special problems to look for? Karl |
