Do you actually know what you need to look for in a lathe to do this?
I'm not a machinist but what I have gathered is that you can usually only cut something that's as big as your chuck.
IE 17'' chuck... Will most likely only cut up to 17''....
One of our lathes at work has a 19'' chuck... And it can only hold up to a 19'' rim.
Big chucks are BIG money and weigh a fuck ton...
I think you really need to know your lathes for an endeavor like this... Or you could end up with a lathe that's limited and cost a shit load...
