I'm thinking in my old age, (57 going on 90) that I may give up furniture making and go turning full time. I have an older Laguna 18/47 that I would like to replace with a 24 inch swing lathe like a Grizzly g0800 or a Harvey T60. I like this lathe but it definitely has its short comings, such as vibration when you move the head anywhere on the bed except over the legs, no available hand wheel, just not heavy enough, crummy banjo, and last but not least, not enough swing for the firewood chunks I have been collecting.
What do you folks think of these two lathes? (Grizzly g0800, and the Harvey T60)? I cannot afford a robust or oneway. Plus Harvey has a 10% discount for military.
