Klippfeld lathes

Hello Doc,
I was initially looking at these lathes some time ago. They seem well made and being Austrian, are likely in the same ball-park as the smaller Emco lathes. They are belt driven so will likely be very quiet and smooth. For a small hobby shop needing decent precision they would be a good machine. I was initially looking at the 11A however given the price, I bought something vintage that was bigger and had tooling for half the price.
