Reply To: Taig Lathe

Mahlon,
I am a firm believer that there is no such thing a lathe that will work well for all jobs. I love the Geneva design lathes for extremely small parts and have no problem liking the 6mm machines. Many people do not like the 6mm lathes because they can not handle the larger size parts. My spin on this is for larger parts use a larger lathe. I think you will find that your Taig will be perfect for the size parts you will be working on. You will also find it useful for making tools such as staking tools. The Taig can do all of the operations easily.
