Created for the mini machine shop enthusiast, the M1015 Metal Lathe has all the features and precision required for small-scale turning. In fact, it has proven to be a hugely popular machine for scale model building. It includes a 3" three-jaw chuck, and a full selection of optional accessories is also available for a wide variety of setups.
