Acra Turn PC-36

Good for you, that will be a good machine to gain experience with. Those Taiwan lathes are quite capable and you may find it will suit all your needs.
What did you get for "stuff" with it, ie 4 jaw chuck, centers?
It’s got 3 - 3 jaw chucks, a nice Japanese 4 jaw, a faceplate and live centre.
