Evening everyone, been a long time since I signed in to the forum. Anyway Im looking to buy a lathe and figured you guys on here would be able to help a bit. I did have a Clarke CLM500 for a while but it sat in the corner of my unit and only ever got plugged in a couple of times. It came with no tooling or anything so I never got round to learning to use it.
Anyway moving on to now, I have decided I would like another and have it in my home garage where I can spend more time on an evening etc learning to use it and make things.
I have seen there is a Colchester Master for sale locally but knowing nothing about them and lathes in general Im unsure wether it is worth looking at or not? Whatever I get will be used for hobby stuff but I would like to get something that will do as a good all rounder and hopefully not need to change again for many years if at all.
Any other advice and or guidance is appreciated.
Cheers.
