Pick this joker up for cheap off craigs list. Now i am pretty much complete on tools if only all my parts from China would get here.

Is that a HF 7x9? Nice! Lots of info on the web about these lathes. Check out varmintal. He has a great 7x9 page and lots of links.

Yeah it is a Harbor Freight , Central Machinery mini lathe. Says it is a 7x10 but it is more like 7 x8 workable space. More then enough for what i am planning on doing. Was not my first choice but was for sure in my price range. Really wanted a micro mark 7 x 16 mini lathe with the brushless motor. You just cant find them used though. A new one was out of my budget range. I will check out varmintal might have been there already , i primarily used this site has alot of good info too mini-lathe.com home page
