yea i see a few on ebay, they charge 40 to 70 but i would think it would be more than that
 





If I had the money, I'd probably go with the $290 micro mini lathe from Harbor Freight...

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=95012

It's only 4"x5" workable area, though... so if I had another $80 I'd probably step it up to the 7"x10"

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=93212

But, I'd buy one to try because I live down the street and could return it if it was crap.

Also, they quite frequently put out 15% off coupons, sign up for their retail flyer (by mail, or email maybe too) on their website and you might get one in the near future.  Plus, they're having a sidewalk sale June 4-6, and might find some good deals.  If I get an extra coupon that I'm not using for June, I'll let ya know ;)
 
thats cool im looking at afew off ebay like this one im like 50 bucks away from the others lol but here is the item number 260240968479
 
Those are the same as the Harbor Freight ones... but for about $100 cheaper, well at the current price anyway.

I think you should make me some stuff when you get one ;)
 
will do, if i can sell one of my 30mw br i dont have to worry if i have enough lol, but if the ones on ebay dont get any higher i should be fine
 
I have the 7"X10" and it is STILL in the freaking box ! GAH ! It WILL be unwrapped soon, though - as I FINALLY have my shed, and the stuff in the way in the "lab" <----I mean, garage ! Will be out of there soon, so I can get it all setup ! WOOOO !

hmmmm... everyone's getting a lathe except me :(

I need me one of those "labs", lol... right now my computer desk is multitasking ;D
 
nice, i no i cant wait to get one just so i can make my own heatsinks/custom host and many other things lol
 
GREG! that's such a no-no! don't leave it in the box!  :D

Really, I recommend Grizzly above all others - they make some QUALITY machinery! I have several of their products in "the shop", and none of them have ever disappointed!
 
Hmmmm - I need a bigger lab, someone to move stuff around for me, oh, I could go on and on and on and on...... LOL
My daughter is going to have to move the Lathe into place - I gotta have it in place BEFORE Father's Day - or my wife has threatened she would simply place a bow on the box, and call it a day ! GAH ! Dad needs a new watch :)
 
OT - does anyone know off hand why ANY you-tube video for me using <Firefox> only plays about 2 seconds, then freezes ? Did I miss a patch somewhere I guess ? Works fine with IE - just HATE the overhead with IE....



Back to the subject, THAT is a FAST mo-fo !
