S16 Caster Set
$ 415.00
The casters on the S16 permanently mount to the legs. Toggle both ends down for moving and storing the lathe, and toggle them up when turning. There are three casters total. Two straight ones are mounted on the headstock end of the lathe and one swivel caster on the tailstock end. Because both ends toggle, you have ground clearance when moving and solid footing when turning.

Click on the image to start an animation of the Tilt-Away in action.
Robust's patented Tilt-Away is the very best option for getting your tailstock completely out of the way for turning. It not only does that, it gives you a safe storage space for the heavy tailstock, and quickly realigns it with the lathe bed when you need it again.
The Tilt-Away is our most popular American Beauty option and 98% of these lathes are shipped with it. We are often told “It’s worth its weight in gold”. You won’t be disappointed. -
Quick viewRemote foot “OFF” switch
$ 129.00Add to cartDetails
The remote foot works in series with the regular stop button on the magnetic backed controller. Either one will stop the lathe spindle. It’s handy when you’re out of position or doing hollowing work when you have both hands on the tool and want to stop the lathe. -
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. -
Quick view16” Bed Extension
$ 695.00Add to cartDetails
The bed extension increases spindle capacity 16”. It is made from the same heavy materials as the lathe bed. If you have a Tilt-Away, bolt the bed extension to the headstock end. Buy it with your lathe or add it later.
