New Lathe finally here, and my first project DONE.

[andgott]

I like the offset on the stand/table actually. I want a Precision Mathews machine but just a little over my budget and a little large for my space available BUT I still want one!
PM is just a little more than a stones throw from where I live and I actually contacted Matt just to see if he might have a demo/showroom machine or a return etc he might let go for a discount. Unfortunaly ( or fortunatly?) No. For now I am resisting the urge to go visit PM.
Best wishes - enjoy!

thanks. The stand has worked well- and has plenty of room for storing all my tools. So far I’ve really enjoyed this lathe, I’ve done a few larger projects now and haven’t had any problems. It’s a powerful machine. I am glad I spent the extra money on something larger than a mini lathe.
