Hey you out there on the turning forum, don't just view, contribute something about something you read here.Let's talk lathes and turning. You can't be any newer at turning than me. I just recently got my new Nova Super 2, DVR xp lathe. Man this baby is a screamer. No belts or pulley's to slow you down.The quality of the cut is so good you don't even need to sand sometimes. Honest, and I am new at this turning.When you do sand there is a reverse feature that finishes the sanding 5 times quicker. I am really glad I got this lathe. I just finished turning 3 new lidded boxes that came out great. Easy. Looking forward to talking with you. Hey, how about hand tools. Love them hand planes. Furniture making? Been doing that all my life. Let's hear it guys/gals. Mitch
