An excellent all rounder which makes a very good first lathe. Although the overall design has not changed for many years we have given this lathe a make over and upgraded many of the components.
A one-piece cast iron bed provides a stable platform for turning spindles up to 32" in Length. The headstock, tailstock and tool rest banjo are also made from cast iron giving this lathe solid feel and a long life span.
A lever mounted on the headstock is used to control the rotation speed of the spindle. There are 10 speed options, which can be selected without a belt change, combined with a digital speed readout to accurately display the rpm speed of the spindle. The spindle has an M33 x 3.5 thread, for mounting scroll chucks or face plates, and an MT2 fitting for the drive centre. A chromed hand wheel is provided to manually rotate the spindle to check progress when required.
Another great feature of this lathe is the ability to rotate the headstock. This design allows for larger bowls of up to 15" in diameter to be turned, by rotating the headstock through 90 degrees. A bed extension is fitted to the left of the headstock which allows the tool rest extension to be moved to a comfortable position for bowl turning.
The tool rest banjo slides smoothly along the bed and can be locked securely into place using chromed cam-lock lever. The tool rest itself is our ever popular round bar made from hardened steel. Optional shapes and sizes of tool rest are also available.
The sliding tail stock also uses a long cam-lock lever to lock its position along the bed. The quill has an MT2 fitting to accept our heavy duty revolving centre which is supplied as standard. The centre can be wound in or out using a chromed handwheel with a range of 50mm travel. The tailstock has a hollow centre to allow long hole boring.
The floor stand has a shelf to keep your chisels handy and ready to grab. There are fixing points welded into the legs to secure the lathe to the floor.
Supplied with floor stand, 25mm diameter 4 prong drive centre with spring loaded centre point, 43mm diameter revolving tail centre, 150mm diameter faceplate, knock out bar, onboard tool storage tray, 2.5m power cable and UK 3 pin plug.
