Thanks for the advice. I certainly agree that the more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Thanks.

No. That lathe was sold. I'm still looking.

Thanks for sharing that link. Very helpful info for a newbie like me.

That has been my experience as well. I guess the things is, I'm still trying to figure out what it is I'm looking for. It's also really difficult for me to recognize a good deal yet. The search continues.

Thanks for the advice, but I just heard back... the lathe is sold.

I just messaged the owner. The problem is, I don't even know enough to know what to ask him.

I keep looking at this lathe. I like the size of it. It has everything I want except a coolant system, which should be a fairly easy modification. I can't seem to find much information on Morton lathes. Does anyone have any experience with them?

Thanks Craig. That looks like a possibility. I think I need to do some more research before I pull the trigger. I also need to make some more room in my shop. Probably not until the spring when I can sell a couple of motorcycles.

Thanks Susquatch, but you can't assume that I know anything.... especially electrical. I don't know anything about VFDs, but will look into it.
