    Adding simple DRO to Axi Drill Press

    I've had the trend and agree, it get's heavy on the neck and shoulders, good bit of kit otherwise. I also bought 2nd hand the 3M and haven't regretted it, especially if you get the light weight helmet(still offers plenty of head and face protection). Still got the trend here for sale.

    Recommendations of short, flat bed lathes.

    +1 for the Twister. If you have any queries try giving Simon a ring, I've always found him to be helpful and honest with his answers(even if it does him out of a sale).
