Hi I have a Sherline and it is handy but slow. Everything takestime to setup. Even
more than a larger lathe.I do all kinds of odd things with it but I bought it years ago
whenit didn't cost so much.Dwight
C: Thanks, knew all that. It's the expense and effort at the moment though. Better to
have a working machine then nothing at all. But there's this guy on the TT_IMS yahoo
group who makes grandiose claims about his dinky Sherline setup, so I am starting to turn
green (as the Hulk should). But not w/anger...
A Starturn is big, no? Is this your business or your hobby?
Starturn is about the
same size as yours, a small education sized
machine, the big lathes are in the garage
For hobby and I use the machines for odd paying jobs, replacement
parts for old clocks etc.
