Hey I was wondering how the Delta Midi lathe was in comparison to the Jet and Rikon mini lathes, I found one in the Charlotte craigslist for 150 and wanted to know what you guys thought about it! Thanks,

I have bought one Amazon for 120 with free shipping last september. I use it for turning pens and it is fine. 150 doesn't seem like a bad price if it is in excellent condition, you can always off less. Depends on what you are planning on turning 10 inches is about a big diamater you can turn. This isn't a heavy duty lathe by any means but for small and light it is fine. If you have big hands it could make it hard to move the belt.
