So I have a project going on that needs 2 different parts turned in the lathe. I have 2 lathes. While going back and forth, I wonder, "what if I needed a third piece turned while I had both lathes tied up?" ?????????
THEN I START TO CONVINCE MYSELF I NEED A THIRD LATHE!
"Yeah" I say out loud " If I had a third lathe, one could have a quick change and a 4 jaw, the non quick change would keep the 3 jaw, and the big lathe would always be ready with a face plate, or 3 jaw."
Then later that night I catch myself inadvertently looking at the local craigslist for a mid sizes lathe!
I'm sick........I have an illness!
I need a cure!
Anyone in the East Texas area selling a 14-16 swing lathe with a quick change?
