[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1307314, member: 13632"] Which one would be really dependant on your personal needs, the 1340 fits your budget better, I ordered mine with a 3 phase motor and VFD installed which is absalutely awesome, I can dial speeds as I'm working which I've found very nice for reaming! I also ordered it with a DRO installed which is yet another thing that I'm super pleased about and it came installed which is very nice. The 1440 would be seriously nice but it would push your budget much higher once you add a few of the upgrades, I would rather get an excellent lathe in budget so you can drop money on quality tooling. Really pay attention to warrenties, PM is 5 years on some 3 on others, I don't know anyone meeting that! [/QUOTE]
