Hi, this is a message to routercnc so I hope it's going to the right person. I read the post from 2015/16 when you were just about to by your Warco lathe. You started out by saying that you had no particular reason to buy one but always wanted one. I am in exactly the same position. I have always wanted to learn how to use one and now I might be able to afford to buy one and to use the Youtube Polytechnic as my learning resource. My question is, after having it for 3 years are you still pleased with the build quality of the Warco machine. I too have looked at the second hand myfords but I would like to start on something a bit more modern and definitely metric. I would really appreciate your feedback before I buy. Please feel free to email me at [email protected]. Many thanks in advance.
