Description The Rivolver CWI-WL225 is an intermediate sized bench top wood lathe with excellent power and value in a 12” x 20” wood turning capacity. This compact yet sturdy wood lathe is designed to elevate your woodturning projects to new heights with bigger power and capacities. Crafted with precision engineering and packed with great features, this lathe is perfect for both novice and seasoned turners looking to work on small and intermediate spindle and bowl work. The CWI-WL225 is perfect for turning pens, goblets, small spindles, candle holders, bowls, and small vases. This advanced cast iron machine, at 77 pounds, is still quite portable but also allows bigger projects to be accomplished. Still a great lathe for taking on the road to your favorite holiday destinations or for permanent set up in your home shop. Features 750-Watt 110 Volt Variable Speed Motor The Rivolver CWI-WL225 is powered by a 7.4-amp, 750-watt (1 HP) DC motor, with two speed ranges infinitely variable from 250 to 1300 rpm and 450 to 3450 rpm. There is a convenient forward and reverse switch to allow the user to reverse the rotation of the spindle for sanding operations and special cuts. Enhanced Control Systems The smartly designed PCB controller on this lathe allows for stop/start functions, simple, smooth variable speed adjustments as well as forward reverse functions with the flip of a switch and a digital speed read out to always know the speed you need.
