[QUOTE="livetohunt, post: 2025849, member: 100535"] I just picked up a used lathe for blanking all my muzzle brakes and doing my own rifle builds. It’s a Kingston 17x67. Things a beast but it was local, got a decent amount of tooling with it and it was delivered free because it was a local sale! It’s going to do everything I need it to, but I would have preferred a 40 length lathe as opposed to this. Thankfully we had the perfect place for it in the shop, right in front of the flag! We run on 3 phase because of our other machines... but if your looking used make sure you find one that is 220 capable as opposed to 3 phase! the DRO with adjustable tool offsets is what made it a great deal.
