Bought this lathe for my high-end candlestick customization business. Received in 25 days, ready to use out of the box, no assembly required. Comes with all the parts and tools needed for turning. As an experienced carpenter I couldn't wait to play with it. After a month of use, I've turned a lot of items with this wood lathe, performing well without any trouble. With CNC, variable speed is no longer an issue. Everything goes smoothly, allowing you to enjoy the fun of woodturning easily without the need for hands. It's a pity that I didn't buy more blades as consumables with the machine (which would save me shipping costs), after all, tool wear is a big problem, and it's much cheaper to buy turning tools directly from Chinese manufacturers than from Amazon. If the extra budget is available, an additional dust collector is a must-have for cleaning up the excess wood chips. All in all, this is a great starter for wood turners who want to give automatic lathing a go. I would give the STL0525 a five-star rating and recommend it to all my fellow woodworkers.
