I thought my sons were purchasing a new lathe for me for Christmas but they have decided to give me the money instead. I am torn between two. These are the CL3-CAM Professional 5 Speed Lathe and Axminster Hobby Series AWVSL1000 Woodturning Lathe - Woodturning Lathes - Woodturning Lathes - Woodturning - Woodturning & Crafts | Axminster Tools & Machinery . Both have swiveling headstocks which I need. The axminster comes with a stand the cl3 does not. I have to purchase a separate tool rest for turning bowls with the headstock swiveled on the cl3, I dont with the Axminster. Really unsure which one to purchase, and it will be purchased end of this week/early next. Has anyone had any experience with either of these lathes or companys.
