Anyone have a chance to check out this lathe? I know that many turners do not necessarily like the Grizzly lathes, but this one is interesting due to capacity and price.
One thing that is interesting is that it has single phase output. Almost all of the VFDs are three phase out. If I remember correctly, the drive is more complicated and I dont know that it is as reliable - I heard of manufacturers getting away from this type of drive.
My first real consideration is the Jet 1642. However, this one is interesting.
