Lol! I agree. The tool post on the 9x20's arent very rigid. I changed mine out a long time ago to a quick change tool post and I use a pitkin donut, it's much more rigid. Here is a pic of it being built. When I really want no deflection, I use the tool post in the second pic. If you're patient and you don't mind making some upgrades, you can accomplish a lot with these little import lathes.
