Has anyone had experience with their lathes?
No, but I've heard that Grizzly (spelling?) sells the same stuff cheaper. I've got a machinist friend in New England who told me several years ago to ask him what deal he could get before buying any Chinese machinery, but IIRC we were mostly talking about my driving out to his place and getting it loaded in my truck. Don't know if he could have it drop shipped, or if he still deals in machine tools.
