Default Heads Up

Just got an e-mail from Model Expo, and one of the specials was this mini lathe.

I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to machining tools, but it *looks* kinda interesting. Don't know how good of a price that is either, but I just thought I'd let you guys know.

That's the exact same lathe you can get at Harbor Freight, Grizzly, Homier and may other discount retailers. Here's a link to it on HF;

As you can see HF's price on it is lower the Expo's sale price. I have one of these lathes and it does the job but takes some rework and aligning to get it acurate.
