16” Scout Bed Extension
$ 369.00
The Scout 16” extension can be used to increase your spindle capacity from 26” to 42”. Mounted on the outboard side of the lathe, you can turn a bowl or platter up to 21” in diameter. If used outboard, you will also want to buy the toolrest extension to get your toolrest up to the proper height.

Quick view3 HP Upgrade (220 volt)
$ 330.00Add to cartDetails
Why get the 3 HP? It’s a little like buying a pickup with the big V8 for those times you pull your RV over the mountains. Because you will occasionally turn big wood with this lathe, you will appreciate the extra power. It’s also much cheaper to order this option with the lathe, as you are just paying the incremental cost between the 2HP and 3HP. If you order the 2HP and later want to change, both the motor and drive need to be replaced, and the retail value of these two items combined is greater than $1,000. -
Quick view2 HP upgrade (220 volt)
$ 220.00Add to cartDetails
If you’re just working over the bed and plan to keep your work to less than 16” diameter, you’ll probably be OK with the 1.5HP. Also, if you only have access to the 110 volt electricity, you’ll be restricted to the 1.5HP. But if you have access to 220 and if you plan on taking the gap out and turning larger work, get the 2HP. It is expensive to make this change later on, as both the motor and the drive need to be swapped out.
