not in person. They never looked that sturdy to me though.

they look like a ripoff of that german lathe that you posted in the concrete section. at least the way they do bowl work.

Kind of, one lathe is just 10 times beefier than the other.

I like the simplistic design but starting at $3000 USD~for the small one and upward of $6500 for the larger model?? I dont think so..
