VEVOR Metal Lathe 7" x 14",Mini Metal Lathe 0-2500 RPM Variable Speed,Mini Lathe with 4" 3-jaw Chuck,Bench Top Metal Lathe, Benchtop Lathe, for Various Types of Metal Turning

Decent machine - price point is irresistable. Wish it had the 1/2 speed gear reducer. Plenty of power. If you ever owned an old Craftsman/Atlas lathe, you will be right at home. 100mm 4 jaw chuck and other accessories are well made. Mill attachment needs expert file fit, but is of good quality. Faceplate comes from "LittleMachineShop.com", and is apparently a Vevor oversight. When it wears out, a very long time from now, I will get a bigger one.

I bought this lathe with a mindset that at is cheap.But boy I was pretty happy with it when it came everything was very nice . Every thing lined up I would tell anyone that wanted one too get it great value for the money

This is the third lathe I bought. The first two I bought were from Ebay and they never delivered and I had to wait to get my money back. I did get my money back , but it delayed my projects from getting done for 6 months. I ordered this lathe from Vevor and they promised delivery in 1 week and they lived up to there promise . Do not delay ordering from this company, prices are going up so order now. This lathe is the best product out there . I bought this for pool cue repair and it works just what you would expect a good lathe to work. The quality is great. Well made heavy casting for the bed, great precision .0001 tol. Renn

Item works as described so far. One of the knobs was broken off but I'm not shipping back just because of it. Very well constructed and solid. Would've been nice to have more setup and use instructions. Over all a very nice investment. For the price I highly recommend it and will update this review as I use the item. I would certainly purchase it again.

The lathe arrived within a few days of purchase and was undamaged. The crate it was shipped in is a work of art and worth keeping. I have spent ~24 hours disassembling, cleaning, inspecting, deburring, honing, oiling, greasing, and reassembling the lathe's mechanical subsystems - tail stock, compound slide, cross slide, carriage, apron, ways, feed screw, rack gear, chuck, and stud gears. I also inspected the motor and electronics. I have posted >150 photos in the Facebook group Home Shop Machinist (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1104020856281121) of my progress - 10/12 (6), 10/23 (19), 10/26 (46), 10/28 (17), 10/31 (35), 11/04 (26), 11/07 (5). This is the second lathe I have owned. I am very pleased with it so far. I am looking for more accessories - MT3 ER32 collet chuck w/collets, MT3 dead center, faceplate and lathe dogs, follower/steady rest, MT2 live center, tooling. I am also planning a few upgrades - way covers and locks and/or stops for the slides. Once I get it mounted to a solid base I will align the tailstock, tool, and chuck. Once aligned I will begin to make parts with it. I look forward to many years of service from it. It is a fine addition to my small home shop.

What can i say? It does as it should. But a few things of note;1, theres no reference of zero on the cross slide swing. Maybe im missing a mark, idk.2: the slides were VERY loose out of the crate. Be sure to tighten them down3: quick change tool post is worth every penny4: the chuck guard broke immediately after first use. Nothing hit it, it just went "nope" and fell off.Overall, great little lathe, handles just about anything you throw at it (within reason, no titanium or chrome moly), and turns pretty good work.

I purchased this 7 x 14 mini lathe with mixed expectations on the outcome since numerous people who have purchased the product have expressed there regret as to there purchase. So many negative comments, from to much grease to bad stickers to loose parts, noise, shipping issues, i can go on and on. It's like someone does not like these machines period. If you want an excuse not to buy on... go to the web. I purchased it, used it HARD all day for 2 days straight . I know the heat is coming for my expressions but the truth is the truth. They are Good.

I bought this on another site for about $430. I was hesitant, but figured I'd risk it. I'm not upset. You should have a bit of experience using one if you're going to buy this though. The tail stock isn't centered, but it is adjustable. Also, people worry about the nylon gears. Well, I screwed up and flipped it from forward to reverse instead of turning the knob to off, then freaked out and turned it back lol. Yea, they grinded like crazy then, but they still work fine and don't make any additional noises or anything. And thats after about 50 hours of work on it.

A little cleaning and adjusting here and there and this is a pretty decent little lathe for light work. Tons of YT videos on how to improve them out there. I’ve cut everything from plastic to stainless steel with it and it works. Don’t expect machine shop quality but if you’re looking for a hobby level mini metal lathe this fits the bill.

Unsure about accurate description as it appears to be a return, maybe used. See the photos and decide yourself. Shipped quickly and arrived ahead of schedule, well padded and crated.Shipping may have loosened bolts, nuts and the like. All the listed tools were included. It powers up and has run at 200 rpm as a preliminary test. So far so good…albeit somewhat noisy. I gave 4 Star Avg. due to its used appearance and I have yet to perform a simple test cut.
