It's taken some time to come to the conclusion that the little VL100 was a little fiddly. I think the swing was 125mm or thereabouts and pretty tight when turning finials. It also wasn't getting much use except when ön tour at a Turnaround. True, I could have set it up better with a decent stand but never got around to it.
I gave the VS Green Peril some thought - more swing and speed than the VL100. But in the end, the quality of the Vicmarc brand sold me on the more expensive VL150 with its 25mm post. Trouble is, now I've got to figure out a way to lift and transport it as my travelling lathe. The beast weighs over 65kgs. Any other VL 150 owners out there with a solution? I hope so.
