    Default Ryobi copy lathe

    Hi all. I was hoping someone could help me with a few questions in regards to an old wood copy lathe i bought from my neighbour It is a RYOBI WHTL 10030. It appears not to be complete. I have no face plate and also there is no manual for it and that makes it difficult to get started with. It has a sanding disc on the other side of the headstock, which i have found very handy. If anybody can help with a copy of a manual and any parts that would be great. Just love the forum.

    Hi Orca, any chance of some photos? A lot of lathes are rebranded clones, as I have never heard of this one.

    Look like this?

    RYOBI WOOD TURNING LATHE ROTATING HEAD | Power Tools | Gumtree Australia Knox Area - Boronia | 1112186606

    900mm 6 Speed Wood turning lathe Model WTL-900 in used condition i have replaced the pulley system as parts are quite readily available from Hare and Forbes in Dandenong with the Hafco WL-18 lathe as they are the same lathe..Also comes with Gouges and instruction manual
    So much timber, so little time.

    Orca,

    I put RYOBI copy lathe model WHTL 10030 in to Google US and Google AU and get nothing.

    I did the same here and got nothing. Search Results - RYOBI Tools You could go to the page and try the "contact us" to see if anything turns up.

    Bunnings comes up when searching for Ryobi, maybe they can help.

    A photo or photos would help. Show overall, close up of head stock and tail stock. Very often the shapes of the parts will give a clue of the factory and other brand names for the same lathe.

    This is what comes up when I put Old Ryobi Copy Lathe into Google AU Images:

    https://www.google.com.au/search?hl=...K0jLsBdfV4M%3A

    None are very old and some are familiar as other brands, including the cheap square tube bed abomination sold under a bunch of different names.
    So much timber, so little time.

    Paul

    Hi Crocy, thanks for your reply. I have tried Ryobi and they couldn't shed any light on it. I will take some pics and post them. Also i can measure the size and thread of the headstock (fine thread). Maybe its a personal import, although it's 240V. Anyway, i can send you all more info. Thanks heaps. Orca
