I have been looking at old Delta and Craftsman lathes on CL and Marketplace. Generally US made, less expensive, and might inspire more confidence in build quality.

I'm starting to look at these. Beginner. Can someone guide me where to start with projects? Is this a good hobby to get into or do these things break frequently? I hate to buy new ones at $200-$500 a piece. Better to aim up in the thousands?
