    Comparing the 3520b with the Nova 2024 is hard. I doubt you will ever find a smoother ride than a DVR. However, they didn't beef up the bed from to original 16" and even that was narrower than I...

    Hey Reed, I just thought I would chime in that my Stubby goes low enough in rpm's that you need a calendar to track them. I've started doing a few bowls the way you do and so far, I've been pleased...

    My first two lathes had all of the controls on the headstock and I think such designs are a huge mistake. My Stubby has a remote start/stop (no speed control on the remote as it is an older model,...

    Damn cheap considering you won't have to cross the line of fire. $180 just might save your life. If I still had my Nova, it would already be installed.

    For your blades, oven cleaner. Coil it up, put it in a large foil roasting pan, spray the bejeezus out of it, scrub with an old toothbrush, rinse, dry and you're away to the races.

    I feel for you. I just bought a Les Paul and since then, I've barely made any shop time. Of course, I guess I'm not really complaining. Come to think about it, I have no idea what you're talking...

    I know nothing about it (didn't know it existed) but after the customer service nightmares people had over Laguna's 18/47 lathe, I will never touch ANY of their products.
