Finally got the machine dialed in, the video below is the 2nd pass on 1.5" diameter mild steel using MCLN holder with Kennametal CNMG-MN insert at a depth of .040 at .0148 feed rate...makes shiny steel..

Now that you've had the Eisen lathe for a while, can you comment on your likes and dislikes? Things that were great values vs things you had to tweak or replace? Quality of the included tooling and accessories?
Thanks!

My lathe is also an Eisen, and I have no complaints at all. They gave me a crazy deal on it, which adds to the satisfaction.
