Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and a novice wood turner. About a year ago, I bought a Craftsman 351.217150 because I wanted to learn the skill and the lathe was offered at a cheap price. Recently, I stripped out the leadscrew in the tailstock. It was a stupid mistake on my part but thats the way it goes. Does anyone have replacement parts for these things? I've been checking ebay and craigslist but this lathe seems to be not too popular. I also heard it was a piece of junk although I've had pretty good luck with mine to this point. Before I take it to the dump and spend at least two grand for an equivalent Jet or Grizzly, I thought I'd ask in the forum here. I also sent a email to Palmgren but they haven't responded so I assume I am SOL with them.
