Yes, but it does exactly what it is supposed to. Maybe not what you want, but I did not make it for YOU. People who expect more than is realistic are ALWAYS let down. Its a plastic lathe printed on a RepRap that makes it possible for someone without access to a lathe to build yet a better piece of machinery without the dependence of someone who has what they need. I don't know why people bitch and complain about something that only improves the lives of those without.

people bitch and complain simply because they do not have the capacity to learn to do it themselves. It's called jealousy.

@Sublimekustoms Thanks for the information, once again, nice work. I'd maybe make the bed a little more heavy duty but other than that its really great.
Nice lathe! What's it made of? You perhaps could use that as a form to cast a metal one. Once again excellent work

@DrFrankensteam It is made of PLA (poly lactic acid) which is a bio polymer and is compostable. But it also can be used for lost investment casting because it evaporates completely and leaves no residue in the mold when heated enough.

@jaytank31 Perfect, No. But almost no extra work either.
