you might also take a look at the homier mini-lathe for $299.99.
The Micromark is nice in that the crossslide and compound have 20tpi
screws giving it a true .050 per revolution of the handles.
It also has the tach and cam operated tailstock as std equipment.
but worth the $500.00+ pricetag .. I dunno
These features can be retrofit from
also .. check the 7x10 group .. lots of information there as well
Just my own views .. no doubt the micromark is a nice machine :)

Hey guys,
Newbie machinist here, reading some good books. I'm
looking to make
my own rc helicopter parts and have done some
looking around and have
pretty much settled on the Microlux 7x14 lathe. What
are the opinions
here of it? I need something I can lift and move
around. I'm also
interested in getting the mill attachment, and may
buy the Micromark
tabletop mill as well, any thoughts on that? Thanks!
