Marmotjr Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 It's hard to tell, but is the tail stock part of the tool mount? If so, I don't see the point in it, so I'm assuming the tail stock is nested into it. Having that feature, the metal lathe cutting setup, on a wood lathe does open some doors. Precise repeatable cuts. If I was doing a LOT of banisters, or columns, or bowling pins?, I'd get that feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark J Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Awesome lathe. Be a blast to own... Untill it had to move... Anywhere... Even inches. Anyway I could never pull it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom King Posted December 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 I'm glad it sold quickly. It was way too tempting, and I really didn't have much need for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
