Hegner top-quality VB36 heavy-duty wood-turning lathe on single-phase. Manufactured in 2010 this has been by pride and joy. I've I have collected a wide range of accessories for it, including three chucks, an Axminster and two Multistars (which have no nasty jaw carriers sticking out) with at least four sets of jaws. Seven tool rests, straight and curved, the smaller ones have 19 mm stems that fit an extra 20 mm tool post to fit the VB. There are two special VB systems for deep hollowing, and the other for a 5-blade  Keaton bowl Saver system (replacement value now in excess of £400 each, and that's without the blades. Various faceplates tailstock centres and tools. For someone wanting a well-equipped, high-end wood turning lathe at a bargain price, this is the one. New this was £4500 with extras totalling around £1750. I'm looking for just £2750, or offers.

In the early 1990's Nigel Voisey and Roger Buse threw all conventions about woodturning lathes overboard and created a masterpiece of English engineering: The VB36 Master Bowlturner Lathe.
Since then, the VB36 has had a triumphal course around the globe. There are very few woodturners around  have not heard about the VB36, and many dream of having this piece of machinery in their workshop.
After many successful years of VB36 being manufactured by Hegner UK, its original designers, followed by a few years with Technology Supplies Ltd. (UK), the VB36 took its legacy from Great Britain to Germany.
