gordon Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I was considering buying one of these for making Poppers ect. Does anyone have any experience/comments? http://www.grizzly.com/products/Hobby-Lathe/H2669 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Glenn Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I have used Grizzly tools quite a bit in their larger line of tools and they performed well. I have not used the lath shown and it looks like it would have vibration where the drill is attached to the bed. I just can't see this giving satisfactory results, but I could be wrong. Can you check for responses from previous owners through their web site. Musky Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firechief Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Check here for a good lathe at a reasonable price http://www.teknatool.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Glenn Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) $499.00? Check this one out from Sears, on sale now for $179.00 which still doesn't compare to the one you first mentioned. This is one that should give good results for poppers and other fishing lures. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00922106000P?mv=rr Musky Glenn Edited January 4, 2012 by Musky Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
