The headstock can be locked in place to maintain accuracy during turning.

The G0632 also boasts a 12-inch swing capacity over the bed, allowing for turning objects up to 12 inches in diameter. Coupled with a 36-inch distance between centers, this lathe provides ample space for a range of projects, from small bowls to longer spindles.

In terms of technology, Grizzly has equipped the G0632 with a quick-release tailstock, which simplifies the process of adjusting and positioning your workpiece. It also features a 4-position indexing head, which is perfect for creating intricate designs and patterns on your work.

For added safety, the G0632 includes a sturdy handwheel for manual control, ensuring that users can operate the lathe comfortably and securely. Additionally, the lathe's overall design promotes ease of use, making it a great choice for both experienced woodworkers and newcomers.

In summary, the Grizzly G0632 wood lathe encapsulates quality and functionality, making it a valuable addition to any workshop.
