NO sliding. I think Oneway did offer an outboard tool rest, platform so yo u could turn on the other side of the headrest. But since it only has a 18 " bed, you can stand at the end of the bed and reach the spindle easily. I ts not like the bed is 36" long and you have to bend over it and reach. Wo uld get a couple extra inches diameter on the outboard side. 10" over bed I think.

Yes Oneway definitely offers outboard turning on their big lathes. Outboar d bed, base, tool rest, etc. BUT, I think they ALSO offered the outboard e quipment for this tiny, little, itty bitty 1018 mini lathe too. I guess th e outboard bed would make sense for this mini lathe if it also added a coup le inches to the diameter. Went from 10" diameter up to 16" maybe. But I can't really remember what Oneway had in the past. This 1018 model is no l onger sold by Oneway.
