Parkside Lathe - Making a Bowl

I make this pine bowl. The lathe produces a lot of vibration with this piece, i think this is the limit to make something safe in this lathe.
I hope you like it.

[@jasonwardwoodturning4387]

That tool looks like a spindle roughing gouge and should never be used on bowls, emd grain can snap that tool easily... due to the metal made from flat bar not solid round steel like bowl gouges!

[@bunkerTools]

True

[@craftsmanwoodturner]

@@bunkerTools That's really important safety advice - I'm sure you would hate it if someone got hurt by copying what you show. Please pin the original comment to the top of the comments thread so any newbie turners will see it and learn better, so they stay safe.

With a proper lathe I would agree. But with this lathe I doubt it could brake a finger nail it is so under powered 😂

[@Trashed20659]

quite possibly the motor would just stop turning. It sounds like it is bogged down.

[@Nirabulator]

Nice! I have begun to see that Parkside tools can be of use to us happy amateurs. If I had the space for it, I’d consider adding one of these lathes. Turning looks like a good deal of fun.

[@krugtbifro6152]

[@davidmaddison2628]

Aldi in Australia has sold this lathe under the Ferrex brand. Thanks for providing an example of something that can be done with this lathe. Note that it doesn't come with any wood turning chisels. Also, as others have mentioned it comes with an unusual M18x1.5mm headstock thread.

[@chrismccaffrey8256]

In the UK (this year) from Lidl, it does come with two basic chisels. One flat angled one and a curved one.

El día que pilles un torno en condiciones lo flipas es con ese y haces virgerias, yo me quiero poner a hacerme uno casero con lo.poco que tengo por el taller, esta semana pondré video pero me voy a centrar en hacerle el torno y descansar una temporadillas de hacer videos, un saludo compañero

[@bunkerTools]

Buah pues si haces un torno casero espero que hagas vídeo de él! me encantaría. Te recomiendo encarecidamente que te lo hagas porque tornear madera es muy satisfactorio. Lo que pienso yo es que con un torno en condiciones igual me daba mas respeto según que cosas, este al ser poco potente se frena con las enganchadas y eso te da seguridad, pero bueno en algún momento daré el paso a un torno decente. Gracias compañero! Saludos

That looks very good, would you say that it is worth buying one for light work and how can I get hold of one . I live in Almeria Spain 🇪🇸. Thank you . 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@bunkerTools]

Thank you dude! For small jobs I recommend it, you can buy it on lidl website for 79€. Keep in mind that the part where the gouge rests will break at some point, you have to be able to make one for yourself. For the rest, buy it!👍👍

[@gaboftak]

hi.I bought it for 44eur reduced sale.the rest broke instantly,motor staled due moving of cooling fan inside,i also broke bearing in tailstock(this was completely my fault ) ,motor on low rev has no power at all.I still belive is good for that price ,so can learn basic thing .i recommend it for really smaller diameters too.

[@alanmumford8806]

No! I'm a beginner wood turner in Cz who bought one. It's an under powered piece of s**t. Don't waste your money. I hope I'm not too late with my comment!

[@alanmumford8806]

As a newbie to wood turning, I bought one of these lathes, knowing that it's little more than a toy. I tried some practice cuts on apple branch stock and was immediately disappointed by the motor power. Anything more than maybe a 1mm cut and it stalls out. :-(

[@bunkerTools]

It is true that this lathe is not very powerful, but something can be done with it. I recommend that you increase the speed, this lathe has more power at more speed.

[@alanmumford8806]

@@bunkerTools Thanks for the suggestion. I've only had two learning sessions so far. When I feel a bit more comfortable, I'll crank it up a bit...

Lo tengo, para iniciarse al torno y su acceso a más bolsillos, vale la pena a pesar de sus limitaciones. Sin embargo, para proyectos más ambiciosos tipo Rocha KRG, ya hay que pensar en maquinarias más sofisticadas.

I bought this lathe on lidl, also it is available online in lidl web site. The lathe is 1m long aprox. and weights 7 kg. For small and inaccurate projects it is a good option. Thanks for your positive feedback!

[@daedelus_]

I have the same one. You might want to know beforehand, the threadsize of the aluminum plate is M18x1.5, not a standard 2.5 thread. So jaw chucks are not readily available. I designed a 3d part, and printed it in RVS. I will share the file on thingiverse when I'm behind my computer.

jajaja es que es de pino y como mortero no creo que sirva ya que es madera blanda. Me va bien para guardar algunas piezas del torno. Pero la idea es buena para cuando tenga la madera adecuada. Gracias Juanjo!

[@franmorillo1337]

Para eso mejor madera de olivo aunque supongo que el pino no tiene porque ser una mala opción. En todo caso habría que tratarlo con algún tipo de vidriante para ser de consumo humano y poder lavarse con agua.

Yeah, don't buy it. It's weak. And the tool rest is s**t, even for a beginner like me. I'm thinking of turning mine into a sander.

[@bunkerTools]

@@kriugeris12345 That depends on the space you have. I am not an expert, but I can recommend the lathe that I purchased, it is a big lathe with a very good quality-price ratio ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6G9qIyrebhrhLM ) If you are looking for a smaller lathe, there are many options, I would tell you not to spend too much money on it, do not worry, whatever you buy will be better than the parkside

[@bunkerTools]

@@alanmumford8806 It is true that this lathe is bad quality, but I encourage you to try to do something with it! please increase the r.p.m for best results. If you try to turn at low speed it will be impossible because it has no power.
