OK, I have been tinkering around on my used RIKON MINI lathe for a little over a year now, and I like what I am doing, but now its time to make a step forward.
I'd like to continue to turn more bowls, and be able to do some larger ones (salad bowls 12-14 diam), I'd also consider venturing into the hollowing arena and possibly coring some bowls.
Ran across a JET 1642 on craigslist for $1,700, he says its about 18 months old and it looks in great shape ..... is that worth my effort?
I am probably a couple of years from being able to get all the way to a yellow monster type, so would this be a good next step for me at this price???
