I believe that the 8x is not just a stretched 7x, but a much more robust, rigid lathe than a 7x. The weights indicated support this.

7x14 = Net Weight: 88.18 lbs / 40 kg

8x16 = Item Weight: Item Weight: 180.78 lbs / 82 kg

There is quite a selection of 7X12 and 7X14 lathes from under $500 and up. I haven¡¯t tried to dig out the specifications as yet but I would start searching with those lathes. The 8X lathes seem to me to be a streched version of the 7X family, increasing capacity without increasing strength or rigidity. Ever run a lathe that has been blocked up to increase the swing? It is the home of chatter!

The good news here is that Wally World has the economic clout to ensure a reasonable quality and (I believe) the marketing expertise to do so. This may herald a new chapter in story of home model engineering. Stay tuned!?? Bill in Boulder CO

Bill, do you have one that is of interest? There must be a hundred lathes on that page, some from ebay others from Walmart.
