Sieg SC4-510

Hi

Im changing my Warco mini lathe now i can afford something better.

What is the general feeling about the Sieg SC4 -510

The main attraction for me is lead screw cover, auto travers on both feeds

plus it has a bigger chuck size

Have a look at moderator Neil's latest book which is based on this machine – Lathework for brginners

I don’t have this lathe, but if you are looking at Arceurotrade, they have a very good rating/reputation. They are my go-to for most things I buy.

I have the Seig SC3 from Arc, it has performed really well the only thing is, I should have gone for the SC4!!!

A friend bought one of the first SC4s from Arc. From what I saw of it it is a capable machine. I was especially pleased to see that the change wheel set included a 127T, so that Imperial threads can be cut without errors.

Another friend wants to buy a lathe, and wants PCF, so have suggested it to him.

An SC4 is an excellent upgrade.

I've had one for years and literally 1,000s of hours work, highly recommended!

I'm still very happy with mine.
