Mini Lathe Beads Polisher Machine DIY CNC Machining for Table Woodworking Wood DIY Tool Lathe Standard Set DC 12V-24V 96W

Not sure why this thing has any bad reviews from my experience. I've never touched a wood lathe in my life. I took a 1x2 piece of scrap. It is pine and soft. Use the table saw set up on this item to rip it in half. And then made what was in the pictures my first try. I do agree the blades are not great and I will be ordering different blades but the machine itself is user-friendly. If you watched YouTube videos like I did I was super impressed. I could do this on my first try. For the price. It's a great machine.

If you've got a little bit of know how this will be a great little tool. My only issue was the length of the bed. I bought a second and made a bonus tool for finishing work, good buy for the value and you'll definitely want to secure it to a board for stability, lathes can be sketchy if they spin off balance

Nothing worth getting. Tools broke first day.the bolts don't stay tighten. Can't keep any thing straight. Thinking the rails came bent.this machine is not worth getting.

I plugged this item in and thought it was slow, didn’t realize the 7 level switch on the adapter/power box. WoW! It’s a keeper!

This could be a nice tool to use with better knives. The tool rest doesn't allow the tools to reach the material if you have small material, which is what I am using it for. I am attempting to make an axle extension with 3/16's material. The tool doesn't reach using the provided tool rest. I've modified it by extending the slot and It didn't help much. I could extend it more to get the knives closer to the material. I've done lathe turning before and I used to make lace bobbins for friends. I wouldn't dream of attempting to make them with the knives provided. This is a basic idea but it needs help before it works effectively.It is not a bad tool, it runs fairly quietly. It seems to have enough power to cut material if the tools are sharp enough.

Got this for my son. He started making pens in woodshop in school and wanted to be able to make them at home. Now he makes rings and pens. And has come up with ideas for other stuff. The wood cutting tools are cheap and we had to get him better ones. But he loves it. I'll have to get him a bigger one latter.

Doesn't turn on. Lathe is totally worthless ad comes with assorted garbage accessories. I'm a day late trying to return it.

The lathe is perfect for my mini wood working items. The instructions that came with it were vague but having used a full size lathe before I was able to work it out.
