Does anyone have one of these who can comment on the noise level?
According to Axminster reviews, it is 'very quiet'. But according to other reviews on here and elsewhere people say it's anywhere between quite noisy, to about the same as a vacuum cleaner - which to me would not exactly be 'very quiet' either.
If anyone has one, could you comment on what the noise is like? Would you still be able to hear your radio at normal volume? Talk at normal level over it? Is it just a background hum?
Noise is an issue for me because my 'workshop' is actually an inside room in the house...so would like an idea of how much noise this generates. I already have a very loud dust extractor which works fine, but looking for something I can leave permanently on while using the lathe.
Thanks
