This guy at Little Machine Shop has a good business selling the accessories and repair parts, and his site contains other useful info, like the manuals for free download, and the emergency parts kit for the stuff that breaks once or twice a year..

If you can, avoid MT2 tapers and get R8 tooling, R8 grips the tools tighter and less likely to be damaged then a taper tooling system.

I have two 7x10 lathes, and I have a Sieg X1 that needs rebuilt, the shipper smashed the table in shipping, warping the leadscrews.

7x10 lathe should be viewed as a kit of parts, they are good out of the box but a day or two spent scraping the ways and you can hold really tight specs.

Kit,
Seriously check out the Tormach mills.
They are superb machines; seen both of them in person (770 and 1100).
Fantastic for the price too.

Loads of support info + they post a lot on YouTube too

If I had space; I'd have one.

Ever since checking out a Haas CNC in my last job, everything else appears lacking. A personal mill, CNC or not is appealing however.

Nice bit of machinery.

After looking around, the X2 is less than $1000 ? How can I justify this with er in doors?....
