Miniature Lathe?

[crazy2medic]

In my youth 1979-80, I had a small metal lathe, I believe it was made by Unimat, best of my recollection it was around $300 to 400 dollars, does this ring a bell with any hobbyist or machinist?

Yes, I remember the ads. What's the question though? And 1979 was waay past my youth.

Still can get one or variant: http://www.thecooltool.com/en/products/ ... t-classic/

Harbor Freight (?) used to sell them and I still have mine from 1997. Ran well and was good enough to hold zero for most small items.
If I was a bit younger I'd keep it but I'll probably see what I can swap it for.

Question 1 where could I find one?
Question 2 good enough to make a bullet with?

I used to have a Unimat a long time ago.
For buying one, the only thing I can suggest is eBay.
It was good enough to make a bullet.
I found the lathe setup pretty good, but never had much success with the mill or drill press set-ups.
