    What sort of a lathe is it and how many chisel handles have you made so far?

    Some thing like that.

    A small lathe which is the apperent clone of the 1014 ( or is it the 1410) Jet mini lathe.

    I have not had much of a chance to use it yet but have "played a little making lots of dust".
