I have owned all of the lathes discussed here and I can say that I agree with Jeff Nicol 100%. The 1224 is underpowered (although it looks great), and as he says, eventually you are going to kick yourself and say.. why didn't I buy the big boy? I've been enticed lately by the Serious and I must say that the PM3520B Black is exquisite...
Oh honey... I gotta a question for you... Take a look at this black machine... isn't it nice??? I remembered you did not like the yellow one right?? this one is "jet black" and much nicer right? Besides, Jeff Nicol says its a good lathe...
I do that a lot also, gotta be more careful with the dates.
