hi im new to the forum and have a few enquiries, i am looking at buying a sieg co baby lathe for making mainly fishing floats out of balsa dowel and some small metal pieces, i have seen some unimat sl lathes for sale on ebay at around the same price but am a bit worried about buying a 50 year old lathe and getting parts etc, i live in the uk and have no experience with lathes but do use other power tools regularly in my job so not tot totally inept!! ;D so what are your thoughts on the above lathes thanks.
