So I'm embarking on an extended period of insane long hours at work in order to feed/upgrade my addiction. I am currently turning on a Jet 1236 and I am going to upgrade to a new lathe. I'm debating between the One-way 2436 with 3HP, the American Beauty, and a Powermatic 4224b. The 4224b appears to be full of useful features, i.e. integrated vacuum system, including 96 position indexing wheel, etc. However it is apparently made in China which makes me a little uneasy. I have no experience with the American Beauty, and I have turned on the Oneway and was very pleased with it. I turn just about everything from small bowls to large spindles. Opinions please!!
