    Nice! I am looking forward to your review after you have tried it. I thought about getting one once, then I looked in my wallet, and the thought passed. I am curious however why you got the Mini Monster, rather than the Monster. I see that Mustard in the background, and i think the Monster would work for both large and small pieces on that lathe, whereas you will be limited to just small pieces on the Rikon. Not questioning your decision, just curious why. Maybe you are using the Mustard for a dedicated buffing station.

    I have the Jamieson set up (with the jumbo bar) for the Mustard and I got the Mini for portability. I sometimes will take the Rikon to demos.

    Nice I think you will like it. Looks like the only difference is the base.
