You are awesome

Nice. I'm curious... where did you find the after market tool rest? It looks much more sturdy than the stock one.

Thanks for the video. I just got mine and haven’t had a chance to use it and it’s been very helpful watching your video to know what to expect.

Good information and demonstration, Thank you for sharing

I'M SURPRISED YOUR ALIVE TO TAPE THIS VIDEO! YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOUR DOING. GOOD LUCK...

I need that exact same tea cup shelf.

Nice work, fun to watch. Keep turning and having fun. Pro tip: the magnetic tool bar can magnetize to tool, which makes it not slide on the tool rest as easily. (Thanks to David Ellsworth for the original tip many years ago.)

Man get some popsicle sticks to mix the colors and resin. Just sayin. Good project.

Bart, the "Woosie" Watch out fer dat "Barr-Greeze"!!!

'Man glitter' love it. Thanks for the review.

I just ordered this model and I'm waiting for fedex to drop it off hopefully tomorrow. I appreciated seeing the unboxing and set up. I havn't used a lathe since highschool woodshop. So it was nice to see someones first time setting up and using it. I've already got a stack of 8 - 12 inch logs that are waiting to be turned. So excited. One question though, is there a way to bolt it to the work table? Or is it heavy enough to where that isn't necessary?

Nice work. Would have enjoyed seeing you return it to it's original owner for the reaction.

I love that pizza cutter!

Nice work, Bart!

I gotta make one... and some pizza. It looks awesome!

If I cleaned my shop I wouldn't be able to find anything. A messy shop is a happy shop.

Too bad about the resin because it looks pretty awesome, otherwise. It's definitely worth a do-over.

Welcome to the addiction. There is no turning back 😂 The pen looks great! You got the proportions just right, something most of us take a while to get, myself included. I'm editing an informal how-to video that I'll be uploading soon. Hope you can check it out. Happy (and safe) turning!

I have one on order just waiting for it to be delivered

turn out or not it was good practice . epoxy is a little tough to work with till you figure it out . i use acks to tom is a cool guy and supports alot of wood turners with his product . it is about the same as Yorkshire grit im told but i dont know i use acks lol . little hint even though you got it in the start of your project . turn that phone on its side brother KZbin filming on a phone is done in land scape mode . be looking forward to seeing more from ya .

hey bart subscribed buddy you welcome over on the darkside any time buddy .

Great video Bart!!!

I just got one for Christmas and can't wait to use it. And I'm a beginner too.

Your "intro" is pointless and annoying. Just sayin.

Just got this same lathe today. Fresh out of the box an will not start. Nothing when you hit the power button!

Bart, thanks for this video! In April I bought this model lathe and have used it almost every day since! It was partially due to your video that I got this model and many others that I even got into wood turning. So thank you very much!

Hey, enjoy your videos and I also got the same lathe. Haven't seen you in a while, hope all is well. Stay safe

Very nice video. I also like making sawdust. But technically, what you have here is "Lathe dust" :)

Big like!👍👍👍👍👍✅💪Felicitări! Great video 👍

Please excuse my ignorance, but is the 18”, the distance between centres? If so, that’s a nice lathe. Doesn’t look too bulky or too heavy, yet sturdy.

Grease? You mean “Man Hand Cream”?

Him don,t want to get dirty!

do you still have your WEN lathe? im thinking about buying one.

Very good craftsmanship. 🇺🇸. I am a big fan.

does the motor overheat on this lathe?

I'm glad you posted this. I have one on the way and should be getting delivery soon. Cant wait to start turning! Your video gave me a nice preview of what to expect thanks.

What speed are you turning your wood at? Looks great also!

Thats right Sarge! Mount that wood and handle those tools!

Good video ...

Can you turn a 8 ×4 bowl

Good job man! I’d like to get some Purple Heart wood.

It's been close to 9 months so how do you like your WEN lathe now. I watched another WEN video and he sent his back and picked up the JET lathe cause he wasn't happy with the WEN for the work that he did.

Thanks for the video! I like the Viking horns!

I was honoring you had more videos on lathe work? I would enjoy seeing them

Great video!!!!!!

Question for anyone...should I buy this one or the similar one at harbor freight...I’m a beginner!

Now that it's been a while, how are you liking the WEN lathe? Is it holding up over time? Considering buying one. Thanks.

I'm thinking about buying one of these. I've never used a lathe before either but I wanna learn.

Thanks for the video, I also have been searching for one on this model but couldn't find one but took a leap of faith and ordered it anyways. Beyond exited for it to arrive in a week. Thank you for the video. I feel a lot better about my purchase now.

Would have LMAO if you feel through that table top while doing your dance.
