[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1526653, member: 94491"] Glad this was brought up ---I've been toying with buying a used multi- machine (mill/drill/lathe) model HQ400/3--- it is belt driven but has gear sets for the power feed for threading ...it has a through head stock and a 14" bed between centers and 13" height from bed to mill chuck and the lathe chuck will hold up to 1.5" round stock internally--- wouldn't really work for profiling due to the "between centers" length though I know all my terminology isnt all correct but does that sound like it would work for "recreational smithing"?
