I havent uploaded in like a few days because I've been really busy trying to buy a lathe, after empireOfLove@lemmy.one suggestion of craftsman lathes are ok, I kept looking also thanks for the help empire! So I found this SEXY 9" South Bend lathe for $350 messaged the guy. He still had it, asked him if he could load it, went to bed last night, woke up and somebody bought it :/. It would have been kick-ass, I didn't get it quick enough :/. So enough of self loathing, where do you guys buy used tools, lathes and stuff for cheap? I've only used Facebook marketplace and crags list. and im still in the market, ill ask the guys at my work to know if they know anyone selling similar lathes but im not holding my breath.

also i dont know if ill post alot this week because of work and other stuff, but ill still try to when i get time. thanks everybody for helping out and see you in the next post!!
