I have one. Stock slave motor and cutting tool were very bad, so I had to change them. Now the lathe is working fine. It's easy to set up and use.

According to the descibtion on rc-mart it says it comes with a diamond tip. Is this the tip you had gayo or did you have the carbide tip.

It was the carbide tip.
The stock motor was an Orion Pilot, the one on your link is different. It can only be better !
