Ever since my shop class in middle school many years ago I've wanted to own a wood lathe because it was so much fun. I'm finally getting a house with enough room for a workshop, so I'd like to finally add one to my inventory. Can someone recommend a good lathe for me? There are no specific projects that I had in mind, but I thought it might be interesting to start by making my son a baseball bat because it's simple and then perhaps try bowls, pens, rolling pins, candle sticks, lamps, etc. Thanks in advance.
