I'm glad it is working for you.
I got into this through model making and these cheaper Chinese lathes come up often from people who want a small lathe. They are often discouraged when they are told to keep looking and double their budget, when the $500 or so for one of these is already a push, so it is nice to hear a positive experience.
Banjo building is an interesting hobby you don't hear often, although I've seen at least one other who was buying a small lathe to make parts for guitar parts.
