It is the large handles that make it!

This is your classic case of "lipstick on a pig". (No offense intended to those who may own an Atlas). That's a $1000 lathe (if that) on its best day.

I don't think so. I've never seen that lathe on a video and I've never seen him do any metalwork, other than sharpening woodworking tools. Also, he's in Michigan, and this lathe is in North Carolina.

I have owned a lathe for many years and have never laid a chuck or anything for that matter on the the ways of a lathe
Just goes against the grain

The big handles are nice but it looks like the carriage doesn't move very far......lol handle is looks to long to clear the cross feed handle....lol

I knew I recognized this lathe. It was the windshield wiper motor on the leadscrew and the quick change build that gave it away for me.
