Overview

Turning small stock at a bench, this mini metal lathe pairs a die-cast aluminum body with a low power AC supply. The listing names the lathe as the only item in the package.

A compact format suits a hobby bench or a tight workshop, and the light body is easy to move. The low power rating and the missing spindle, speed and tooling details mean the listing cannot confirm which metals or sizes it turns.

Who it's for

A model maker or hobbyist with limited bench space gets a small lathe sized for light work. A shop that needs production turning, or stated speeds and spindle details, should look at larger machines.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Compact bench top format
  • Aluminum alloy and die-cast body
  • Light enough to move
  • Runs on standard AC
Cons
  • Low power rating limits cuts
  • Spindle bore and speeds not listed
  • Only the lathe in the package

Performance notes

On a lathe the motor power and the rigidity of the body decide how deep a cut can be taken before chatter starts. A light die-cast body has little mass to damp vibration, so light passes on small diameters are the realistic use. Speed range is not given.
