Wood Lathe Mini Lathe Machine Multi-Purpose Type Lathe Milling Cutting Grinding Polishing Professional Table Top Lathe Tool Kit

This is the third time I bought one of these little woodturning lathes. The previous two that I bought were just so cheap and flimsy I couldn't use them. This one actually has a little beef to it for such a little thing. But I am very happy with it and I will make more money doing Christmas ornaments than the very reasonable price that they charge for this product. My suggestion is by this one and quit looking at the others cuz they suck...

As a custom ring maker, I've been using micro-lathes for over 5 years and can confidently recommend them for this application. Their compact size allows them to fit within a dust collection hood, which is ideal for indoor use when working conditions aren't ideal in your shop. This particular model impressed me with the abundance of usable accessories specifically suited for ring making. For example, the extended bed length provides more working space for holding the ring mandrel and manipulating the ring stock. Additionally, the stabilizing feet make a world of difference in terms of stability – a must-have feature for precision work like rings where even slight movement can affect the outcome. Overall, the extended functionality and improved stability make this lathe a worthwhile investment that should last for many years to come, just like my previous one.

Initially, I had planned to return. Mine was purchased as a return from someone else. Some parts missing. The thing would run, then abruptly shut down. Thought I would give it a second chance. I did yesterday. It ran ok. I am a professional cabinetmaker. I wanted this miniature lathe for basically one thing. I am turning top water fishing baits. I took some time yesterday and crafted a custom table, complete with vacumn pickup and custom tool rest. Mine was shipped without the tiny barb to hold material into the Chuck. I made my own. This is a foreign made product. You take your chances. Simply put, didn’t wanna spend a lot of money. I ran it yesterday and it performed well. Time will tell.

This is an amazing product small and strong it have a a multiple variable speed .. max diameter of wood is 2".. you might need some lock tight on thw screws it might become loose when working so highly recommended to put one in..

I bought this with the idea that I would turn bridge pins for my guitars on it. Ordered it and found it on my door step the next day. Wow Amazon! Unpacking it showed no surprises. Well packaged. Quite a few odds and ends were included for sanding, shaping, and turning. It comes with a chuck that will open to 9/32”. The manual is actually very good for these type of import small tools. Useful information with numerous pictures. Very thorough. Everything went together as shown. I was impressed by how well things slid together. The little tail stock glides nicely as does the tool rest. I read complaints about the tool rest not being able to be set close enough to the stock. I found switching the cinch bolt to the opposite side solves this problem. Turning on it is another thing. Motor speed is set on the power supply. Mine would not spin on the lowest setting. Next one up it worked fine. It spins pretty fast so develop a light hand. The tool that was included was ok to play with but I have a small set of tools that worked much better. Overall this is meant for small items like finials or bridge pins or… but it does work and works pretty well.

Just know it is very small. We use it to make pens… it works great! The saw attachment is a bit schechy …but for the price and functionality it’s great. Just keep in mind the size.

Worked well for about 3 months and then the bearings went out in the tail piece making it completely useless. Would NOT recommend.

Excelente producto. Es tal como estaba en las fotos.

Questo oggetto mi fa tornare in mente il lavoro di mio padre, ricordi bellissimi, prodotto fantastico per chi come me vuole realizzare piccoli capolavori.

Très petit. Même pas pour bricolage

Magnifique article recu en bon etat

BIEN RECUS

This is a small lathe, so if you are only using it to make pens or similar size items, it does the job very well. As usual, read the specs. It is sturdily made, stable on the bench thanks to the outrunner legs and extremely quiet. It comes with a number of other items which turns it into a small circular saw, for instance, although I have to say I haven't had the time to explore these yet. I think I am going to get a lot of pleasure out of this machine. Highly recommended.
