Hi guys (and gals)...

Has anybody seen this? http://www.turnrobust.com/scout/

I exchanged a few emails with Brent a few months ago and he mentioned a new product coming out. So far it seems like the web page has various design drawings but no actual pictures yet (I'm anxiously awaiting those). Has anybody seen one in person?

The price is right up there for a bench top but I suspect the quality will be very high too (7 year warranty).

Haven't seen it but it looks like it's going to be an exceptional lathe. Maybe he'll have it at the AAW symposium.

No one outside of Robust has seen it
 
I was chatting with Carl Jacobson who is a Robust dealer and he was telling me about it. Haven't seen one yet, but I will be in Atlanta next to Brent. Maybe he will let me play on it....

Nice... I'm curious to hear what folks think. I hope you get a chance to give it a spin.
