Hey all,
First post, was hoping for some advice from some members.
Looking at picking up a Aust made Cobra wood lathe (still made in aus), seems before they went offshore.
It looks in good condition but it has round bars for the lathe bed, vs cast which i am more familiar with.
Are these still considered a decent unit? Is there any issues with the round bar beds to be aware of?
0.75kW so not a huge motor, but still hopefully enough to not be an issue with what i need to turn
Thanks for any advice,
