I have been researching lathes quite a bit... I feel the dark side pulling on me... I look at the various manufacturers and there is such a difference in price Like the Oneway 2036 costs $4500 but you can get a Powermatic 3520 for about $2500... both 2hp both 20" swing. I just do not understand why such a price difference. For the $2K difference you can get a boat load of accessories and still come out ahead. Heck 300 bucks more and you can have a Stubby S750 with much more swing. Is the Oneway that much better of a machine or is it the name that you are paying for... Anyone out there turn on either/both machines can you tell the difference. I do not want to start a brand war just curious.
