This travel lathe is up for sale because I have a chance to upgrade to yet another Porper Model "B". I would just rather have two of the same lathe when I am on the road.

I can't say enough about the functionality and portability of this lathe. It served me well for about five or six events. It's now up for sale and you will get a great deal here with no wait.

The compact Mini-Q-Lathe has been specifically engineered as a cue repair lathe. It was designed from the ground up to help you do one thing extremely well...repair cues. It will allow you to professionally replace tips and ferrules in a snap, create wraps quickly and accurately, clean shafts faster and easier than ever before, and even drill new tenons with absolute ease and accuracy. In fact, you'll repair virtually everything on cues of all kinds, even house cues.
Makes repairs faster, easier and far more accurately.
This is serious equipment for the serious business of cue repair. It was compact-engineered and developed from scratch, to make your cue repair jobs as easy as 1,2,3. Precision is matched only by machines costing several times as much. The Mini-Q-Lathe is accurate to one-ten-thousandths of an inch. It comes complete with travel/storage case with supply drawers, all the accessories you'll need, and complete instructions for performing perfect cue repairs. And it's powered by a 1/4-horse, variable speed, reversible motor which will operate on either 120v or 220v power. Dimensions: 50" L x 14-1/2" W x 10" H Weight: 80 pounds

"The Mini-Q-Lathe is accurate to one-ten-thousandths of an inch."

1/10,000" = 1/100" ??
