I can buy this Yates American M70 lathe but I know absolutely nothing about these machines. It has a 4-speed 7.5 hp motor. The top end is 3500 rpm. I don't remember the other speeds but it seems like it goes down in halves ie: 1750, 875, 430 (or something like that??) Anywho.....is this a good setup?? About 60-65" between the faceplate and the live center. It also has a faceplate mount on the left side of the motor. The voltage is 440 3ph so I would need a transformer. 3 tool rests and some face plates included.
Your thoughts?
