5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Lathe!, May 20, 2009

I totally agree with the first reviewer. This lathe is every bit as good as the JET series in it's class at half the price. Turned a pen this evening and it was so nice to do on a smooth running quite lathe. I also purchased a Baracuda chuck but have not used it yet. I'm thinking that this must be SHOP FOX's well kept secret. Better jump on this before they realize what they have here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shop Fox Mini Lathe, May 14, 2009

I looked at Jet mini lathes for twice the price. This lathe is just as good in my opinion. I use it every day and love it. Along with the Barracuda chuck I got on Amazon, I haven't found any project I couldn't handle. $240 delivered to my door...can't beat it. Five pepper mills and ten or so lidded boxes later, I couldn't be happier.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty darn good lathe, March 3, 2010

...especially for the price. I'm with the majority here. I think it's every bit as good as my previous Jet, and even better as it handles 15" material with ease, and with the extension bed (a must-have item, IMO) stretches it out to an unbelievable 38 inches.

I checked out the welds on my tool rest, etc., and can find no evidence of breaking or cracking. The belt is snug and very smooth (previous reviewer:did you loosen the belt tension lock knob and snug up the belt?). It's quiet and does an excellent job for me.

Price and free shipping! I recommend this W1752 to anyone who need a mini-lathe.
