Where the spindle shaft screws into the chuck it tapers down to about .400" **Q: can the bed be extended** A: BOTH the Head end (motor and head chuck) and the Tailstock (center holder) can be moved along the bed to INCREASE the work area out to 160mm. Loosen the 4 Philips head screws on the rear of both the head and tailstock slightly and both with slide on the bed to extend the work area. **Q: Can this cut copper for jewelry like rings?** A: No it's too cheap and small. That's what I bought mine for and even after I modified it to where I thought it would work, it still didn't work. Sorry. Good luck on your search. Best bet most likely is to buy the one from harbor freight honestly. That is what I'm working on doing myself. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ absolute garbage *by J***W on August 3, 2025* Major waste of money. had to shim the tailstock to TRY and get it in. chuck is out too far to be useful for anything other than a paper weight. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/421780035-mini-metal-lathe-mini-motorized-metal-working-lathe-machine-diy](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/421780035-mini-metal-lathe-mini-motorized-metal-working-lathe-machine-diy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
