I saw one of Laguna's Pinnacle lathes at the Symposium in Louisville.
Was impressed and interested. Do you all know of anyone who has one.
I'd like to know what thier opinions are. Thanks OB
 
oh yes the pinnacle is a favorite of mine. A good friend of mine has one and spent some time not so long back turning on it side by side with a vb36 and oneway 2436 and it is my machine of choice The only thing I would change about this would be to make the bridge deeper so i could do more serious worker over the bed, but by the time I can come up with an extra 6 grand I am sure I can find me someone who will make me an exention.
