Re miniature versions of a general-purpose center lathe (engine lathe). They typically have swings in the range of 3″ to 7″ (70 mm to 170 mm) diameter (in other words, 1.5″ to 3.5″ (30 mm to 80 mm) radius). They are small and affordable lathes for the home workshop or MRO shop. The same advantages and disadvantages apply to these machines as explained earlier regarding 3-in-1 machines.
