Shop Fox Lathe

[Daniel Heine]

Hello,

I stumbled upon a new Shop Fox lathe on ebay the other day, and wondered what all of you think about this new product. I know the low speed of 600 is too fast, but take a look:

It selling on ebay right now for $499.00 buy it now.

What is your opinion on this tool for a budget-limited turner?

Thanks,
Daniel Heine
