Have you guys heared about the new South Bend 10K lathe?

WGH

'Sup guys? :)

So, after a few months of browsing the internet in search for reviews and directions about which manual benchtop mill is the best one to purchase, I've finally decided upon and bought my RF-45 milling/drilling machine (which I'm EXTREMELY happy with! :)). Definitely one of the best purchases I've made so far.

Long story short, I still don't have a lathe and I'm now looking to buy one. I just entered the South Bend Lathe Co. web-site, and it seems that they've start producing and selling their 10K lathe (which's a benchtop lathe). So far they only offered huge, 2500+ lbs lathes, which don't seem to fall under the "benchtop" category. :\ Have anyone of you fine fellas here got to try the aforementioned 10K lathe? Is it any good? What should the price tage be for this lathe?

Thank you guys a lot for all the assistance! :)

Yours greatly and looking forward to reading your thoughts,

Arye Segal.
