It's soon time for me to upgrade to a larger lathe and I'm interested in the Rikon 70-3040. I'm really excited by the lathe's ability to turn large diameter pieces between centers. Does anyone have one and what are your impressions?
I'm having a hard time finding one in a store that I could check out. It's just a lot of money to spend sight unseen and just order online without actually getting my hands on one. If you are in the PA, MD, DE, NJ area, I would really appreciate being able visit your shop to see the lathe in person. I'll also be drivining to the Boston, MA area in early October, so I could also stop by if you are in the New England area.
Thanks for your help,
-Matt
