8" X 13" VARI SPEED WOOD LATHE

The CX815 Mini Wood Lathe is a compact variable-speed lathe designed for smaller woodturning projects and beginner workshops. Its 300W DC motor provides adjustable spindle speeds from 750 to 3200 RPM, allowing the operator to match the speed to different turning tasks and workpiece sizes.

With 12" between centres and an 8.2" swing over the bed, the CX815 can handle projects ranging from pens up to medium-sized turning work such as bowls around 5" in diameter. The bed is constructed from cast iron for rigidity and stability, while the headstock and tailstock combine cast iron and steel construction for dependable support during operation.

The lathe includes two tool rests measuring 4.5" and 7", along with a 5.7" faceplate, live centre, spur and knock-out bar. A durable powder-coated finish helps protect the machine, and the CX815 is backed by a 3-year warranty.
