That lathe has nice configuration features with the outboard extension at the headstock. Seems a bit underpowered at 1.25 hp for a 16" swing lathe, especially when roughing out bowls, but motors can always be upgraded provided you can get the electronics to match up. With that outboard stand in the pic, it seems like a versatile setup.
