Baileigh lathe

[Sam Beagle]

I have been looking into a new lathe for awhile now. I have always wanted a robust, but I came across these baileigh lathes for a very nice price, they certainly look industrial. Any thoughts.

The Baleigh lathes are basically some of the same models carried by Grizzly and what Laguna used to carry. In my opinion for the Baleigh lineup, the 1840VS looks like the pick of the litter to me, but I would rather have the larger G0766 22x42 that Grizzly carries. I think some of the Baleigh line is made by the same Burt Group and just painted blue/white instead of green/white.
