This lathe from Record Power represents the culmination of many decades of expertise in the manufacture and supply of superior woodturning lathes. Developed with the help of professional woodturners and keen hobbyists, we believe we have produced a world-class machine for woodturners of all levels. Thanks to a number of innovative design solutions the capabilities, features and performance of the Herald far exceed anything a machine of this size has been capable of before - It brings top-end professional performance at a fraction of the size and cost of comparable heavy-duty machines. Optional Bench Mount Foot for the Record Power Coronet Herald Lathe gives extra height when mounted to a bench or leg stand.
Record Power has a long history of making good quality lathes right back to their Coronet roots in 1945 - around 75 years of accumulated experience and knowledge. Record Power lathes earned a strong reputation as well-engineered and robust machines.
Features:- The 1HP motor features the latest in motor technology to give huge amounts of torque, comparable to lathes over twice the size and motor rating. Instantaneous speed change is achieved using the easily accessible control panel. Reversing is also offered for sanding or left handed turning (Must be used only with suitable locking systems for chucks and accessories).
- Unlike most cast bed lathes, the headstock of the Herald can be rotated 360º, optimising access and also making it ideal for left-handed turners, who can effectively turn this machine into a fully left-handed lathe using the reverse facility of the control system. A bearing system beneath the headstock allows it to be located in popular positions. The headstock can also be moved along the lathe bed if required.
- The tool rest holder is locked in place instantly with the easy to use cam locking system.
- The 1" diameter tool rest stem helps minimise vibration, giving a smoother and easier cut.
- A 3 step pulley is provided for maximum versatility. For most turning the middle pulley is perfect and provides good torque but if you need maximum torque comparable to much larger lathes for heavy cuts or low speed work, then the bottom pulley has immense torque capability. For very small work, polishing or burnishing acrylics, the top pulley gives access to very high speeds.
- The headstock features a substantial hand wheel to turn the spindle, making fitment of headstock accessories much easier.
- Holds the spindle securely and offers a full 24 point indexing function.
- The new and improved tailstock has been designed to allow easier access to the cam lock handle at the rear. It is also profiled and open on one side for comfortable grip when sliding along the bed.
- The legs shown in the photo are not included and are sold separately. The Optional Bench Mount Feet are included.

Worth it
Runs smooth and quiet, and easy to set up. I recommend attaching the bench feet before the motor assembly because it’s heavy. Some issues with the instruction manual, but was pretty straightforward. Note that the emergency stop also functions as a lockout (twist it and it pops up). This is not documented and in the locked position your lathe will seem like it isn’t receiving any power. It took me a few minutes to work this out. Otherwise it’s been fabulous and a massive upgrade from my 5 speed mini.

Coronet herald is a dream
I received this lathe and got it set up by myself with some difficulty as it is so solid and so heavy. Managed to get it set up and on my new bench table . It runs so quiet. It purse like a kitten. Love love love it. It is well built. So easy to change the belts if needed. Not sure that i will have to since the mid range is perfect for using the variable speed dial to change the speed from low to high. It has several safety’s for turning on and off. Can add safety emergency stop. But has one already. So far so good. So smooth.

Record Power Coronet Herald
My club has one of these and users like it. I think for the price, it has the best value of any 14" lathe. I did a review of this lathe you can watch here https://youtu.be/bEWqhqM1EYw

Herald Lathe
I'm really pleased with the quality of this tool. The fit and finish is excellent. The tailstock alignment with the arbor is perfect. Runout on the arbor almost non-existent. Very smooth and quiet operation. I did have a problem with the lathe tripping my old flaky GFCI outlet, but a new outlet fixed the problem.

Record Power Herald Lathe
Very solid, accurately machined components. The solid state speed control is flawless, 140 to over 1900 RPMs without changing a belt! Headstock and tailstock are in perfect alignment. Tailstock and tool rest lock into place with a quarter turn on the locking levers. Swiveling headstock makes it very easy to turn bowls, goblets, lidded boxes, anything that needs to be hollowed without the tailstock getting in the way. A dream to use.

If you are looking, just buy it.
What an amazing lathe. So glad I spent just a tad bit more over some of the other similar brands. Worth every penny.
