Description of Delta 46-745 Steel Lathe 120-Volt, 1.5 HP Motor
If you're into turning, you'll love this lathe. Its 16-inch steel-bed design is 20 times more torsionally stable than the traditional cast-iron bed, and with 42 inches between centers, it offers all the work room you could want. The head spindle lock is a great design--rugged yet easy to use--and has a 24-division indexer for ornamental work. The cast-iron tool rest is a full 12 inches long, and its base travels smoothly on the ground bed for the widest range of tool placement. Powering the whole thing is the big-name Baldor 1-1/2-horsepower motor and Poly-V belt for maximum torque and minimum vibration. Delta has thought of everything with this model--the steel-tube construction offers additional stability because the feet will accommodate four-by-four lumber for a bigger footprint and safer turning on large workpieces. There are even brackets below the bed so you can add a shelf if you'd like. --Kris Jensen-Van HesteTools and Hardware Reviews of Delta 46-745 Steel Lathe 120-Volt, 1.5 HP Motor
Customer Review: This lathe is no toy!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
After buying all the shop equipment I needed to outfit my wood shop I set my thoughts on a lathe. I did research and found one very important factor when choosing a lathe, don't go cheep! I choose the Delta 46-745, and I'm so glad I did. The baldor motor is the finest in the industry, and the control you have over speed is fantastic. The other great feature is low to no vibration, Delta even gives tips on totally eliminating vibration by either, fillingthe legs with sand or the ability to use 4x4's to widen the lathes foot print or secure the lathe to the floor. This lathe is both smooth and very powerful, everything is accesable and very easy to setup, all tooling has it's place in the leg tops and the control box is right at eye level.This lathe is now my favorite machine in my shop!! You have to have one of these bad boys!!!!
