5.0 out of 5 stars
The best mini lathe!,
By William Bickford "Industrial Designer" (Ronkonkoma, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 3.5" x 17" lathe, chuck and C accessory package, metric (Misc.)
I had a Grizzy mini combination mill and engine lathe at work, which was a beast at roughly 400 pounds, with mediocre accuracy. It was time to trade up and I picked the Sherline, which I was familiar with back in college. It is still a tremendous workhorse; I get great accuracy, a wide turning speed range, and the accessory package has more than enough components to get started to say the least (The thread cutting kit is finally coming in handy).If you are planning on purchasing a small lathe for accurate metal, plastic and woodworking, I highly recommend this machine. It is lightweight (roughly 45 pounds), which means you can store it away when not in use. However, this also means that it is critical that you are able to bolt or clamp the lathe to a surface before you begin your work. It is well worth the money and if taken care of, will last for decades. |
