Metal lathe

Purchased my 10x30 pm lathe from eBay. Same company and prices just free shipping. Great people to do business with. I think it took 6 days from purchase to delivery.

I talked with Nicole at PM because I wanted the 22 inch lathe vs 30 inch, was told they weren't going to stock the 22 inch lathe due to more call for the 30 inch.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for purchasing metal to turn?

I don't know if you know this but any kind of oil on the wood will change the woods color .

Cutting metal and then switching to cutting wood normally is a major clean up.

Maple and lighter colored woods seem to be more noticeable if oil gets on them .
