[Crw-talk] Fwd: Lathe for sale

[Jim Cox]

I really don't know, nor do I know anyone who has the lathe, but as far as the duplicators goes, and I can only speak for the delta, they work fine with some time setting things up and making sure things are running straight and true. As far as the grizzly is concerned the only small problem that I can see is the wheel to make things cut (going left to right)  is very small compared to the ships wheel the delta has. which is fine if you want to turn it all day. Maybe priced a little high, but if you think about shipping everything to your shop also, through the company, compared to the drive a few hours to pick it up in Lancaster you are saving a little money. (Only if you can drive by Cabellas on the way there and not stop)
