Re: Mods, was Different Prices - such a range!
I have a 7x14 and on a couple projects a x16 would really have come in handy. Using a live center in the tailstock really eats up space. On the x14 with a center in the tailstock I made a new 10 3/4

Re: Different Prices - such a range!
Oops, it was 2006 but I have a 7x14 not 16. I know it was the longest one available at the time, but I didn't realize that they snuck a longer one in since then. It has the old brushed motor. Now it

Re: Mods, was Different Prices - such a range!
Well, I'm glad I got my 7x16 because I have needed it several times. It let's me not worry about space most times. As to plastic gears, I hate plastic. Now saying that, I have broken a plastic gear

Re: Mods, was Different Prices - such a range!
Interesting discussion. I have a 7x10 and it has been able to anything I've wanted to do so far. I'm still learning and getting better :) What does the group think of changing the plastic gears out

Re: Different Prices - such a range!
Sounds about right. The $729.95 that I said mine cost included the $65 extra shipping charge they tacked on. So the lathe was 664.95 without the extra shipping charge on top of the regular shipping

I bought my MicroMark in 2011 on sale for $679.00. I love the BLDC motor. No noisy gears, just a nice quiet purring sound.

Re: Different Prices - such a range!
Hmmmm, are you sure about that year (2006) for a 7x16? I was looking for a mini lathe and I recall Micro-Mark releasing the 7x16 in the spring/summer of 2010. Micro-Mark was the only place that was

Re: Different Prices - such a range!
I've gone the other direction. I got the Harbor Freight 7x10 because it was small enough to fit in my workspace and sufficed to do what I have needed it to do (so far!) Being able to pick it up and
