Ecstatic Turner.
I only started turning at the start of the year have been using a 2nd hand craft lathe and am now totally addicted so got to the stage where I thought I could do with something a little better and more robust after much researching decided to speak to Simon directly he was so helpful (thank you Simon) initially couldn’t decide between the twister 180 & the 200 but decided to take the plunge and go for the 200 and am so glad that I did it’s a great machine and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase and looking forward to many happy years of turning ahead. I should add Simon was not at all pushy in terms of getting me to go for the more expensive option he just gave me sound professional advice in terms of what I might want to be able to turn in the future and the pro’s and con’s of each machine. Again many thanks Simon am sure I will be back for more items in the near future.
A very happy woodturner.
I have spent hours researching the KS range and chose the Twister FU 200 after talking with Simon Hope's staff at the Harrogate Show - I wish I had taken the plunge earlier. I have been pleased with this purchase from the off and was pleasantly surprised from the moment it arrived. The lathe is very sturdy and well made, with no vibration that I had on my little hobby lathe. The motor is really quiet but powerful enough to turn large workpieces but also perfect for any small box or pen turning.
After making this purchase I received a telephone call from a member of the Simon Hope team who talked me through the lathe arriving and how to assemble it - A nice touch that I didn't expect.
Great Lathe, great service
I took advice from other wood turners when looking to upgrade from my small Axminster hobby lathe to something more professional and nearly every one suggested coming to Simon Hope. So glad I took their advice. This lathe is amazing. Extremely solid (took 2 of us to install it!) really well made and perfect head and tail stock alignment (using the supplied alignment tool) the motor is smooth quite and powerful, I can’t see me having any issues turning larger or out of balance pieces. And Simon’s service was second to none, clear and quick communication and fast delivery. I couldn’t be happier.
