Micro Lathe II K1019 Kit
A benchtop metal lathe with a ground steel bed and a spindle on two sealed ball bearings, suited to experienced hobbyists and to small metal parts that demand tight tolerances. The six-speed V-belt drive and the 0.001-inch graduations on the cross slide dial place it above entry level, though it requires manual assembly and setup.
