Best Lathe for Bowl Turning?

I've searched and searched and searched some more and can't find clear answers. What size lathe do I need to turn bowls? What additional attachments and tools will I need? What is the best lathe in the $500 (give or take) range for wood turning. Thanks to all of you who help in advance.

If you have website recommendations then please include them.

Well, I can't tell you which lathe is the best, but, I can tell you something to look for because my lathe doesn't have it. Get a lathe whose power head will swivel 90 degrees. That way you can turn bowls in front of the powerhead instead of on the side over the rails of the lathe. Hence, you can turn larger bowls. Most DYI lathes have a max diameter of the work piece of 12" which is plenty if you are turning bed posts, but limiting if you are turning bowls. There are several attachements that mount your blank on the lathe for turning of bowls. Mine is a simple flange that replaces the live center on my lathe and is screwed to the blank. (watch how deep you turn!) Others work much like the chuck on a drill, except of course, designed to hold much larger pieces. And another style works in the opposite way, that is it enlarges to clasp the workpiece from inside a ridge of wood. You will need several tools that are especially for turning bowls.
