Review: Small metal lathe - A fantastic little lathe good value for the money
Review: Feels like it was made out of wet toothpicks - I unboxed it and immediately questioned all my life choices. Turned it on, and the thing wobbles like a jelly on roller skates. Flimsiest thing I own, and I'm including a single sheet of A4 paper in that comparison. Bearings make more noise than a marching band in a tin can. Couldn’t cut anything - even the included plastic test dowl- without it threatening to explode, and I’m pretty sure it laughed at me the whole time. I couldnt tell over the noise. Would rather cut with a wet noodle than touch this lathe again. I cant express how terrible this was. 0 value for money. 0 functionality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Requires some extras.
*by C***Y on 11 January 2025*

Needs extra two rail modules to raise the lathe above the main rail so that the Jaws can be fully opened, otherwise the most you can insert is about a 15mm diameter work piece without opening wider and having the Jaws hit the main rail. Seems like good value for money, quality wise, but have not yet used it, can't until I get extra rail modules if indeed they sell them..
