Well I've been AWOL from the site for a while, but I am interested in getting folks opinions on what I should get for my next and last lathe. I won't say that money is not an object, but there isn't a lathe on the market that I have ruled out (except for the big Laguna Pinnacle). I keep coming back to the value of the PM 3520B and I think that it would do everything I need (mostly bowls, hollow forms, and some small spindle work). But I don't want to look back on the decision and regret it. I am very interested in the Robust American Beauty and the Stubby 750, but neither jumps out at me and says "I'm the one!"
Any PM 3520B owners out there who wish they had something bigger? Any robust or stubby owners that have opinions? Any advice and opinions would be great!
