The Laguna REVO 12|16 brings serious woodturning performance to a compact, shop-friendly package. Designed for turners who want more than a basic midi-lathe, it combines a 1HP permanent-magnet DC motor with Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) speed control to deliver consistent torque throughout the entire speed range. Whether you’re roughing out a bowl at low RPM or making precise finishing cuts, the REVO 12|16 gives you the power and control to work confidently without sacrificing valuable shop space.
Low-speed torque is where the REVO 12|16 sets itself apart. Its PWM controller maintains power even when the speed drops. This machine allows you to tackle heavy roughing cuts while still providing the control required for delicate, precision work. With 12-1/2" of swing over the bed and the ability to turn bowls up to 16" in diameter in outboard mode with the appropriate accessory, this midi-lathe is capable of taking on projects that belie its compact footprint.
The REVO 12|16 embodies what Laguna does best: combining sophisticated engineering with purposeful design to create machinery that feels as good as it performs. Compact enough for the discerning home shop yet powerful and versatile enough to satisfy serious turners, it brings an unmistakable level of refinement to the midi-lathe category.

This is a fantastic lathe! The motor is nearly silent, and the unit is a perfect size for my small shop. I do recommend getting the base with wheels as the lathe is quite heavy for its size. This machine has good power, it’s easy to change which pulley the belt is on, and the digital speed readout is really nice. I highly recommend!
My only complaint is you have to unplug the lathe to turn it off. My outlet is not in a convenient place to unplug it.
Otherwise I love it.
