So it looks like my headstock is bent and can't be adjusted. Two lathes come to mind:

Axminster Trade Series Precision Pro Lathe - Woodturning Lathes - Lathes - Machinery | Axminster Tools & Machinery

At £450

And

Proxxon DB 250 Micro Woodturning Lathe - Woodturning Lathes - Lathes - Machinery | Axminster Tools & Machinery

At £150

Can I have honest opinions on both please? I just want to do pens, and I currently have a wedding to pay for, also currently have 6 orders on the go!!
