Thanks guys.
It's definitely more fun if you made it yourself.

The lathe I got is a 7x14 mini lathe, which is a copy of Sieg C3 mini lathe.
They are sold under many different names, but come from the same factory.
I bought mine on ebay from seller in Adelaide, approx $680.
You need to spend some time setting it up, but once done it's a pretty capable lathe.
Great site to visit is mini lathe.com.
Heaps of info about mini lathe & mini mill.
