Bryan King - variable speed lathe review
Package was sturdy and contained everything without damage. The lathe is powerful enough to cut chromoly. I have tested mild steel, chromoly, and aluminum so far. The harder metals have a rough surface cut but that could be my cutting speed to the tooling as well. The cross slide has developed some slop as I have used it but adjusting the gibs solved that problem. The machine was fairly Trammed our of the crate otherwise. The only issue I have unresolved is a lose tool rest. I need to disassemble the cross slide to access a few Allen screws to make adjustments. Otherwise, aside from a few loose screws, this lathe is an excellent machine. I think after adjusting I can get accurate to a thousandth of an inch in hard metals with some minor surface blemish which can be buffed with Emery cloth.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tailstock can’t be centered from factory
Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2022
Title says it all. While the value might seem great, the entire thing is sloppily and shoddily put together. Even after tearing down the tailstock and fixing an extremely loose screw used to center it, this is the closest I’ve been able to get the tailstock centered. If you’re looking for something to precision lathe work on, look elsewhere. If all you care about are doing tapers, then I guess this is the lathe for you.
