Hello All,

I have an old Craftmaster CL1000 (circa 1979!) that is not up to my requirements in a lathe anymore.

The good lady wife (financial controller) has graciously allowed me to spend some of my tax return on a new/secondhand lathe...$600 or so.

What are my best options here - I have a couple of Teknatool TL1000's around, there are the usual suspects of the MC900/MC1100 but is there something else I should be looking at? Woodfast and Leady's just don't pop up in my price range but I thought I would ask the forum as ther are so many knowledgeable folks out there.

Hope you can help me.

Scott in Peakhurst.
