I do varied kinds of projects in my shop, from traditional furniture creation to bent laminations and steam bending. I don't have a lathe at present, but have often wanted one for turning small pieces such as pulls, spindles and the like. I'm not interested in big bowl turning, but can imagine doing smaller round-ware for a little variety.
I have an opportunity for a used Comet II with a fair set of tools and accessories. Is this a good choice? I'm frankly not keen on the electronics part, but seems like it may have a pay-off on a lathe.
Thoughts?
