The Best Mini Lathe of 2023

Sturdy & Durable Construction: The mini lathe is made of high-quality cast iron which stands up to tear and wear. It is equipped with a 650W motor that delivers a great deal of energy. If you are into making models, it would be your professional assistant who has precise metric graduations and metal gears and therefore is punctilious.

Infinitely Variable Speeds: Revolving Speed Range: 50-2250±10%. The mini lathe machine comes with variable speeds that give you the convenience to achieve the best work. This lathe allows you to work on both forward or reverse of any possible speed. The feeding rate can be adjusted manually or automatically. And an emergency button is accessible just in case.

Works With Precision: Spindle Bore: 0.8"/21 mm. The metal working lathe is pre-installed with a 3-jaw chuck, 3.9"/100 mm in diameter, which clamps raw materials tight, and a backsplash guard that ensures your safety during operation.

Faster & More Effective: Swing Over Bed: 8.3"/210 mm; Swing Over Cross Slide: 13.8"/350 mm. The small metal lathe features a turret post for quick tool change and a cross slide for free blade moving, making internal cutting, face cutting and bevel cutting possible.

Wide Application: The lathe produces precision work without taking up a lot of room in your shop or garage, making bushings, spindles, prototypes, models, and more.

COMPACT TURNING: 15-1/2" between centers.

IDEAL SPEED RANGES: Choose from six spindle speeds (500/840/1,240/1,800/2,630/3,975).

IMPROVED TENSIONING SYSTEM: Easier access to belts.

INCREASED RIGIDITY: Wider bed ways.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES: Expand your turning capability with a 21" Bed Extension (719101), Stand (719102A), and Stand Extension (719103A).

RECOMMENDED FOR: Novice woodturners and folks with limited shop space.

Easy Access Speed Change: Provides ample room to change speeds quickly

Self Ejecting Tail Stock: No need to use the knock-out bar to remove the center
