but you'll miss the humor in watching the fedex people try to wrangle the 80lb box!

Is there a Harbor Freight store down that way? They have lathes, I've also personally seen the Jet at Rockler in Cambridge, I would be willing to bet that Woodcraft probably carries them too.

Not too keen on Harbor Freight.....but I may go see what they have. If it means spending a little extra for quality, I'd rather.

I sent Beaver woodworking an email asking for a quote.
Thanks for your help.

I did check WoodCraft as well. I would just rather inspect one in person and take it away rather than buy on-line.

I also did a search from this site and saw Jet's for $200!!! But I think they were OLD threads....

I think I know what I am going to do, but I figured I'd ask here with so many knowledgable people with the noses for a good deal/info.
