ZHRUI Mini Lathe Machine Tool

Review: Excellent when used within its capabilities - The maximum one can put in the existing 3-jaw chuck is 15mm or 1.5" in diameter. The instructions are terrible. To move the tailstock, loosen the bottom two screws by the tailstock and the allen screw in the channel under the tailstock. You CAN get tools for it. The same guy that sold this one sells them. It works but do not try to turn steel. Stick to wood, copper,aluminium and plastic. The tailstock probably takes an M15 chuck. The tongue gets a bit wobbly if it's extended more than an inch. The tool that arrived with mine looked burnt and it was missing a T nut and bolt. None of those are big issues. This is a good product for home robotics. I recommend pairing this with the milling machine.
Review: Fitting things in the chuck, etc. - I bought this to turn chess pieces and so far (prototypes), it works for that. The instruction manual isn't great, so I've spent a lot of time just tinkering with the bits to see what happens. I did figure out something that might help the commenter about fitting pieces. You can reverse the holders (compare her pictures to mine) to get a grip on bigger things. If you open the chuck all the way, you can take out the holders and turn them around. Be careful to load them back in order (there is a number on each, see the picture) and then close the chuck back down. Now you are using the stepped side and can hold bigger pieces. The included fixed cutting tool works fine, but you'll want more tools for versatility. It would be nice if the company took advantage of the modularity of the design to sell modules separately. For 2 examples, (1) one of the other kits has stands under the turning parts to make the whole thing taller and able to accommodate even bigger pieces and (2) there is a mini tool rest sold with one of the other kits that I would buy separately if I could (as it is I cobbled together my own). That's it. This is a a toy more or less, but it has been a useful one for hobby use, like mine. It's not perfect, but I don't regret buying it even a little, really

### ⭐ Way too small.
*by J***. on January 15, 2025*

Couldn't even do a small aluminum fitting i just needed to turn down. Tried higher speed and very slow feed rate and it struggled. May be good for jewelry or model parts.
