If you upgrade look at some of the newer Jets. My small Delta just cooked it's motor after a liast of small ails.My big drill press eats belts. My Jets are all still going an I've got a couple of them with no probs.I'd go with a 1 hp if I went with a Delta as that motor is bullet proof. The cheaper lathes have cheaper bearing.
