Look what the FEDEX man just brought

My new Cheapo Chinese Vevor MX- 8 x 14 Mini Lathe, it came boxed, but poorly assembled which I expected, I removed it from the box and gathered all the parts lying in the bottom of the box that had fallen off in transport, placed the lathe on my bench and took it apart, Cleaned, lubed and reassembled, tuned and dialed in, after about 2 1/2 hours it is ready for operation.... Test operation all working properly and all centered and straight, it Works,
this is what is expected if you buy one of these cheapo Chinese made Lathes, they will work fine as long as you take it apart and reassemble it properly, Clean, lube and fine tune it, otherwise don't bother getting one. ;)
