Bought a whole grab bag of tools just for the lathe. Looked horrible when I bought it but cleaned up nice with some Rustoleum Hammerite. 1/2x20 spindle is hard to find any attachments for. Going to have tailstock spindle tapped with 1/2-20 threads so I can thread a chuck on it. Runs extremely smooth despite temporary (and admittedly extremely unsafe) setup on my ping-pong table. Was going to trade up for a larger machine to turn bowls, until I realized I can unbolt the headstock and turn it around. Missing grinder guard and rest, if anyone has one please PM me.
