Description

The Sealey SM1308 is a compact wood lathe designed for woodturning enthusiasts and small workshop applications. Powered by a smooth-operating 370W motor, this lathe provides four variable turning speeds of 850, 1250, 1750, and 2510rpm to accommodate different turning projects and timber types. The no-volt release (NVR) switch is a crucial safety feature that prevents the motor from automatically restarting after a power interruption, protecting both the operator and workpiece. Built with a robust twin bar bed construction, the SM1308 offers a distance between centres of 1000mm and a turning capacity over bed of 350mm, making it suitable for a range of spindle turning and small bowl work. The solid head and tailstock provide stable support during operation, while the 300mm tool rest capacity over rest allows for comfortable tool control. With a 3/4" x 16tpi thread size and supplied accessories including a face plate, live and dead centres, and 305mm tool rest, this lathe arrives ready for immediate use. Ideal for beginners learning fundamental woodturning techniques or as a reliable backup unit for experienced turners, the SM1308 combines practical functionality with straightforward operation. The ready-to-use setup with fitted 3-pin plug and cable means you can start turning projects quickly without complex installation requirements.
