I do not believe that anyone is currently importing them.

It's ashame. Great lathes. I have an Eagle. Can't get them anymore either.

Oh well.

ya that is the one i have b3 and i cant find any info on it,i dont even know who makes it?i also looked on integy and didnt find anything..any info anybody?

[SirSpeedy]

Elite makes it!

It is made by Elite Racing. They are in Japan. Integy imported it. Then they imported the Eagle. Now Integy onws Xipp, so they sell the Xipp Super Lathe.

If you are looking for operating instructions, the general idea is the same wiht any lathe.

See ya.....

Just out of curiosity hilbilly, did you get that off of ebay? They are great lathes but if you break the blade you could be in some trouble.
