I'm interested in learning how the Predator works out. I've been considering the Lifan 24HP as an upgrade for my 18HP Briggs.

I am a novice machinist, and this was the first time I tried to do an internal taper - on my 1919 Sydney lathe. It didn't come out perfect so I used Loctite 660 to fill the gaps and make sure the two parts rotated together.
