Axminster SIEG C2A Mini Lathe

Anything that is highly regarded is so because of the blend of features that add up to something better than any of its competitors. The Axminster SIEG C2A 300mm Mini Lathe is unmatched by any other machine in its size and price range. SIEG are a large company in Shanghai, China who have a comprehensive range of small to medium lathes and mills entirely of their own design and we at Axminster are proud to have a large range of SIEG's products in our portfolio.

The C2A has caught the imagination of large numbers of model engineers, prototype designers and hobbyists since we introduced it in 2007, offering that blend of accuracy, size, convenience and price that attracts attention wherever it is seen. With the range of accessories available to complement the machine, plus the standard features we have included, the C2A offers a near complete package to allow your ambitions to grow as your confidence and abilities grow with experience. I say "near complete" because in the USA where this machine has a huge following there is a wealth of knowledge and experience of this machine. If you Google "mini lathe" you will come across a mass of sites and communities devoted to this machine and other variants. There is also a small but growing UK web community devoted to these marvellous little lathes offering help and advice in English you can understand!

One thing that has happened over recent years is the recognition by SIEG of the quality standards expected by European customers, rather than the "got to be the cheapest price" culture of our USA cousins. The standard of fit and finish out of the box is now of a very high standard indeed. Coupled with in-house production of the electronics by SIEG, the reliability factor is also top notch.

So if you are looking for that special small lathe, one that you will appreciate for years to come, improve if you wish, stamp your own mark as an engineer on the machine, then the SIEG C2A Mini Lathe will fill that special place in your workshop.
