well I suppose if one were to smoke to excess it would be a sin

Looks to be a 101 or a 109, either way it's smaller than you'll be happy with in my opinion. And the price is a bit high for that lathe.

I'm not too sure if it would be practical for pipemaking, or a good value for the price... but it looks sexy as hell!

I've got a "thing" for tools...
