Default Re: Machinist opinions

@espee. I'll mainly be doing mill work on it and by type and size of material and what I'd be doing i did not think it would put too much stress on the machine, so I figured for the difference in pricing I'd get the lathe so if I need it for other projects I have it available.

@grady. I have looked at the tooling sets and needs and since I have access to full size machines/tooling already I am not too worried about upsizing mine in the future. The only downside as stated above its a lot easier to do smaller work on a smaller machine than the fullsize haas machines I can use.

With all this I'm still in research phase epically after hitting up mini-lathe.com, man there is a lot of good info their that I had not even thought about.
