All,
I am coming to the end of my research and about to pull the trigger on a new lathe. One thing that I see is that for the G0733 lathe, a listed length of 80-3/4 but the shipping length is 69". If I look at the pictures, it appears that the bed is one piece which is what I would expect would be the longest length, how can that be? What am I missing? Any G0733 owners mind taking a tape to the bed length? I am narrowed down between a Jet 1642-2 (15% off ends tomorrow) and the Grizzly G0733 (which I have a 10% coupon until later March). I know the Jet will fit my space and not sure about the Grizz, thus the question. Any input would be very helpful! Thanks
