If you want to try something cheap before you become fully addicted, you could by a belt/disk sander instead of a lathe. The technique I use is to buy some dowels in the size you want and put it on an electric drill and press it against the belt sander so it will make the plug nice and even, and its a lot faster than turning it by hand. Its sort of like a poor mans lathe

Stay classy
