For the passionate turner, this high quality machine opens up the possibility of taking on larger projects and fulfilling long held ambitions. The AW386WL shares many features in common with more expensive machines. The powerful induction motor runs quietly. It features variable speed control, over three belt ranges (easily changed). The switchbox/controller is magnetic, allowing you to position it anywhere on the machine bed for convenience. The headstock swivels for better access when turning bowls or hollow forms, and slides along the bed for turning off the end. Headstock adjustments are easy and tool free. The tailstock has plenty of ram travel, the graduated barrel helps when drilling to a required depth. Overall the lathe is cast iron construction with well ground surfaces for smooth operation. Supplied with centres and leg stand.
