Well, I finally went and bought a new lathe - the Rikon midi. That's a lot of lathe! A few minor glitches/rough edges, but overall I am pleased with the quality.
I currently have a Nova Precision Midi that is fixed for a 3/4 x 16 TPI spindle, and the new lathe has a 1 x 8 TPI spindle. Any recommendations for a spindle adaptor, or should I just try to sell and get a new chuck?
Thanks for any advice,
JohnM
