I have the nicer Harbor freight lathe and I have really enjoyed it, but I like making big bowls and it is to fast and very under powered, i saw a G1495 at a garage sale the other day that I considered, but I think it has the same flaws as my Harbor freight lathe, I would really like to get a g0766 it seems like a great value, and has a capacity for pretty huge bowls. I know a lot of people on here bought one and wanted to hear if you regretted it or if it was what you were looking for?
