Hey Turner peoples,
I mainly hang out in the neander forum.
I'd like to rehab some old tools (drills) and new tools (unhandled rasps) with nice handles.
However, a springpole lathe is pretty big and a bit silly for my intended purpose.
Can you recommend a good starter lathe and tools?
I don't have a ton of space.
Mainly, I'd like to make some knobs, handles, and pens using some local firewood.
I'd like to start cheap and okay, and then pay good money for excellent if I fall in love with turning.
