Budget available, space available, power available, and what do you want to do? Your budget is starting off at half of what you'll need :)
 
Needs a skateboard or golf cart to get from one end to the other.......
Ever see the lathes that have a seat on the apron and the operator rides on it?

But yeah, you beat me to it. I was going to post a picture of Sherline and then something like you posted. :dunno:
 
I'm open to various sizes and options.

What is your location? I have an extra lathe that I would be willing to part with. Get it, “part with”?

Mine is a Precision Matthews PM-1030V with factory DRO and stand. I am in NorCal.

I am not actively advertising the machine. I love this machine, but I bought a bigger PM lathe. I am totally okay to keep it as a second machine.
