My wife is going to murder me – just put a deposit down on the Warco BH600G and arranged delivery for a couple of weeks 😬

I did say it was a slippery slope, next you'll be sneaking things into the workshop behind her back. The appropriate comment is always " Oh that, I've had it for ages" doesn't always work though. Ibuprophen cream is very good for localised bruising!

Enjoy your new lathes, can't have too many.
