The lathe is a (XXX), very similar to the CWL12D, so matching spaces and accessories are available locally from Machine Mart

We have the following fittings and accessories

Tool Rests - Short Long and Bowl Turning


Chucks - Cup (Jam) Chuck (picture) Screw Faceplate and Four-jaw


Read about chucks and their uses for different kinds of work at http://azwoodturners.org/chuck_type.pdf


There is and index lock which prevents the headstock spindle from turning, useful when changing chucks or special cutting - see the manual for details. Make sure that the spindle is free to turn before starting the motor! Free Locked
