    Buying another 3 in 1 would be a big mistake. Keep the Smithy. Then, when you can, get a real lathe and a mill. Be surprised what you can squeeze into a small space. In the meantime have fun...

    jd, I guess the moral of this thread, for me anyway, is that when it comes to trashing Smithy, you shoptask guys are hard to beat. :D
