[QUOTE="blackbrush, post: 344442, member: 11280"] Mike, You are halfway there... As far as room, I have mine stuffed lengthwise in a finished out shipping container on the ranch. I am just outside Cotulla so you realize how hot it gets. Summer comes and I turn on the a/c, play and learn. If I didn't mention it before, I have a South Bend 10L or 10x36. In an 8' wide container (minus about 10" for finish out) I have yet encounter a space issue. I love my SB, but it is the only thing I know. My mentor recommended it and that took a lot of heat off me as he earned complete trust and admiration in the machining industry and precision long-range shooting systems as well as myself. Coming full circle, I would not persuade you on this brand or that. There are many good/great lathes out there. This I will say; after you purchase a lathe, or lathe and mill, let the money spending begin.... Cheers! Wally [/QUOTE]
