NOVA 57080 DVR 2024 20-Inch by 24-Inch Electronic Variable Speed Wood Lathe Review

I received my 2024 last week. I also set it up on my own. The lathe comes in a medium weight cardboard box that provides no support. It would be really nice if TeknaTool would put a piece of 1/2" or 12mm plywood in the bottom of the box to provide some stiffness.

The packing: The legs are in their own box. The lathe itself is fully assembled: The headstock, banjo, and tailstock are already attached (so don't count on being able to carry it into the house in pieces). The faceplate, handwheel, centers, other bits and pieces are in a small box inside the lathe box.

The lathe is everything I expected. It's powerful and quiet, much superior to belt drives. The button pressing will take some getting used to, but once you set a specific speed, the motor on/off buttons allow you to stop and restart the lathe at the same speed. That speed remains set until you either change it or use the power toggle switch to completely remove power from the lathe.

Yes, it does run right up to 5000 rpm! It was a little scary just watching it spin with an empty chuck, let alone with a workpiece. That speed might be handy for finishing spindles. Refer to the recommended speed/diameter chart in the manual. Don't get crazy, it's easy to get hurt or maimed.

The instructions say that setup is a two person operation. I'd recommend that, too. But since I had no handy second person available, I used a gorilla ladder and pipe clamps to anchor a 1/2 ton comealong to lift the lathe from the floor and lower it to the legs. It wasn't pretty, but it was safe and it worked well. No dings, no muscle strains, and I didn't need to hurry to line up bolt holes and get a bolt threaded.

When you expect to receive the lathe, make sure you have some grease remover to get the gunk off the ways, too.

I purchased this lathe directly from Amazon for $2644. It's prime eligible, too. The lathe has been popping up at that price on and off since Nov 2012, so watch for it (try camelcamelcamel [dot] com).
