[1952B3b23]

Hey Guys,

I was thinking about getting one of these:

Does anyone have any experience with this e-wheel? Im new to the world of english wheels but i wanted to start out with something decent. Ive heard Baileigh makes some good stuff. I do believe Mike from Cornfield Customs uses there stuff, i saw him in one of the promo videos.

Thanks for any advice,

-Chris

For what it's worth...
Having seen and inspected their equipment at a couple of shows I was impressed with the quality of it. Never had a chance to try any of it but watched as lots of guys did and drooled over it.

Thanks for the reply Torchie. I've heard lots of good things about the tools they make from others as well, glad to hear more of the same.

I have one of their 36" throat bead rollers and I'm very happy with it.
Their English wheel should be just as good too.

Good to hear Old Iron. I gotta find some space for that sucker, its pretty large.

it is a pretty good piece of equipment, it is good for smaller shops that dont have a ton of room. i almost bought this one but am saving my pennies for the larger wheel they have out now

 

[1952B3b23]

I certainly don't have a ton of room that's for sure. So a wheel that size would be just right for me. Have you ever used the EW-40 Mike? That wheel you showed is a monster I don't have the space or pennies for that beast.
