Hi Dave: My thoughts There are lots of lathes out there as machining is in a down turn in most areas, So take your time. It would be more important to me to have it work correctly and come with most features Chucks, threading gears, tool holders and so on. Unless you are a master and want to scrounge around to put one together out of salvage places. I would go on to say I feel its buyers market and better deals are to be had than junk. Not sure what your doing with it but slightly bigger can be good in length and swing. There are many machine shop suppliers so you can get most attachment/tools. I would not get to concerned over brand but some lathes are set up for certain things and poor at doing others. Last I would want to see it run and check accuracy (worn out ways or bearings) is not much good.
