Been thinking of getting a new Turncrafter Commander 12 inch VS lathe from Penn State. I like the 1hp motor, light,plus the other features. Does any one have any input on this lathe?. Thanks in advance for any input. Jim

Friend of mine has one and loves it. I looked at it and it is a pretty nice machine.

My dad just got his yesterday, I'll let you know. It did take 4-5 months for it to be delivered, pretty popular it seems.

Nate & Bernie, thanks for the reply. I'll have to call Penn State about delivery time. I have my mini jet 1014 to play with in the mean time. Jim

Hey...that looks pretty nice! I don't have any experience with it, but the specs look kinda nice! Good weight...decent power...nice color.

Didn't see anything I didn't like. Nice price too
