Plunked down my deposit and placed the order for the PM High Precision Lathe with taper attachment a couple weeks ago. Sold my Craftsman/Atlas 12" to make room for it.
The electrician is coming out next month to install the electric. In the meantime I'm moving stuff around to make room and preparing that corner of the garage.
Really looking forward to having a nice, new solid lathe that doesn't chatter at the drop of a hair.
I am suffering from chip withdrawal, though. Need to make some stuff on the Taig to tide me over. Going to finish my grinder rest and try making a 1/2" turner's cube.
