Thanks for posting the link Chris, the Rikon is the #1 benchtop lathe, I sold mine to get the larger Jet 1220 and what a mistake it was. The 1/2 horse motor on the Rikon had far more power and torque than the 3/4 horse on my Jet, also much smoother and no vibration, would turn anything you could fit on it. I have other Jet products but when it comes to lathes and Bandsaws Rikon is the way to go.
