You can buy (and indeed I bought), cheap 2nd hand lathes or milling machines for 800 bucks, which I wouldn't consider "a lot more expensive".

- regularfry 3y agoNot only that, but if you consider a cheap second hand lathe mostly as a source of parts and rebuild the frame out of something like synthetic granite (which is mostly a casting job) then it'll probably have much better rigidity than anything you can buy at a similar price.
