T-Mech 1m 4-Speed Wood Turning Lathe

Solidly built and good value. Not for precision work.

It is a sturdy, solid machine, but a bit rough and ready, with no refinements. Still good value, if one does not need high quality or performance.

You get what you pay for

This is an ok lathe with quirks. The tailstock bends away when you tighten it. The belt pulleys slide on the shaft. The face plate feels like you can bend it with your bare hands. It doesnt tell you the thread on the lathe so not sure if you can get any more accessories for the lathe. So any chucks might be a problem. The chisels are as I expected for free chisels.

The good points: it works fine the motor seems good it gets you started in wood turning although slightly limited on what you can do.Read full review

Good entry level lathe

Very good first lathe. Good and solid. Only problem is the toolbar fitting - the knob broke and we have to use a screwdriver to fasten it.

Quite pleased with this

I’ve had to adjust the tool rest / arm as this didn’t seem rigid enough, but otherwise very happy

Not bad for a beginner

Early days for me but so far not a bad machine.
Cutting tools included are basic but okay for a beginner.
