Vicmark Lathe
I am in the fortunate position to afford the new Vicmark VL150 evs lathe. Has anybody got one and what do you think. Who gives the best prices on these lathes as I am limited in funds and would like to purchase a new chuck to go with it.
Your advice will be appreciated
Regards
Rog
With kind regards and may the wood chips fly

Vicmark
Thanks for that. I was thinking around Brisbane or surrounds as I live on Russell Island. Vicmark apparently don't give pensioner discounts as I have been led to believe by one of their staff. Actually quit sad as it keeps us off the roads and busy as I make quit few childrens toys etc.

Wait for the WWW show there is normally specials there, or Vermec have a special for April - free delivery for Vermec and Vicmac products.

Vl150
Richard Raffan did a review of this lathe, and comparison with other midi-lathes, in the last issue of Australian Wood Review.
Subvert the dominant paradigm!
