home workshop metal lathe

by admin on July 8, 2009

A new Chinese made lathe, geared head,13 inch swing x 30 between centres.reassembled from new by me in the UK.Well made components, but dreadful embly in China of headstock and apron internals in particular,and its not the only one found like this. So beware if your thinking of buying and lift the headstock cover first.
Very good machines if well put together but a lot are not and they wont last long if faults are not put right at an early stage.Supliers are as clueless as the chinese workforce that emble them.
