I have been looking at midi lathes to replace the full sized General lathe that I recently sold. I feel that a midi will serve my purpose well for the occasional turning that I might do. Just got a Penn State catalog and was looking at the TurnCrafter Pro VS w/ bed extension. Does anyone have this machine and what do you think of it? What other midis should I be looking at. I feel that it should have extended bed capabilities yet small enough that it can be put away when not in use. Don't want to spend too much because I hardly ever use it. Any and all opinions would be appreciated.
