Yes, female hobbiest here. And that puts me in a second minority, I'm

My plan is to use this for miniature projects on softer woods and
metals. So it will be detailed but very small scale work. My
research has shown that this will probably do me quite well for my
current backlog of projects.
I'll hang around and read up on the grown-up models for a while and
see what's what. As long as I don't get too blatantly flamed for my
baby Unimat questions I think we'll all get along just fine.
Hmmm, I have a 7x lathe (Chinese made) and a unimat SL-1000. Although
the 7x is much larger than the unimat, they each have their places.
I've heard people say that neither lathe is worth anything because
it's not a (fill in blank name of expensive lathe here). I've also
heard people say that nothing can be made on either of them.
I've seen lots of proof to the contrary....
As long as it does the job for you, within whatever limitations it
has, then it's the best lathe for you... especially because you
already have it....
Welcome.
