Hi
Hopefully looking to buy my first lathe in a few months and I`ve looked at both imported and SH Myfords. Most of the imported lathes seem to have the slowest speed at around
100 rpm and I was wondering if this is a bit too fast for manual thread cutting? The advanatge over myford though is that they have a higher top speed. Also has anyone experience of the newer variable speed lathes e.g Chester DB 10V or Warco WM250 just wondering if they have much torque in the slower speeds?Thanks in advance
