From my standpoint, running a 1660 at work is not nearly as fun as running my Atlas at home. Everything is easy to lift at home. I don't have to brace myself before sliding the tailstock up. A chuck change takes 30 seconds. The tooling is lighter, and won't break my foot if I drop it. It's quieter. Now I can't take big bites at home either. But that tradeoff is worth it, with no production deadlines.
