That new Grizzly can be a real "bear"...to deal with?
My fellow woodturners. As we aproach the end of February,we are reaching the 2 month mark since grizzly has released its 1642 EVS to the public seen here. http://www.grizzly.com/products/G0632
Being this 2 month mark, has anyone turned on it, known someone that turned on it..or perhaps simply been turned off by it? At $1400 (after freight), its a little of a spend, especially after considering the price of a new Jet 1642 EVS being only marginally more (through Amazon), and how Grizzly has just so happend to match their appearance step for step after WMH Tool Group's bargain gem.
I would like to open any thoughts you may have on this lathe. I'm not looking to buy one; I couldn't top what I have right now even if I asked the woodturning gods. But i would like to open up the floor to anybody who may have some insight, first hand experience, or food for thought.
Happy Turning- Jon
