Hey Dave, would love to try this product. What do I do now?

Thanks for all the info @ Diemai. I was looking at this lathe from Harbor Freight. Too small? It is under 50lbs and could be packed in a suitcase.

This is the info I needed. thanks everyone. Was hoping to find a light enough lathe without compromising the quality of production. My suspicion seem to hold true though that the lighter the lathe the poorer the production quality. Don-Art, the Unimat DB200 looks amazing but is a little pricey for me. Still open to other thoughts and opinions though.

Looking to purchase a light weight lathe that I can pack in my luggage but will still be capable of making normal size topwater baits. Was thinking about purchasing this one, but wanted to get a better opinion as I am new to all of this. Is this going to be too small for what I need? Thanks in advance. Tim

To add to the conversation, what's everyone's preferred wood for walk-the-dog lures turned on a lathe?
