Great Jet Mini Lathe
This is a very useful and efficient lathe for small spindle and internal turning. I am very impressed.

Small, solid performer ...
The Jet is my second lathe, and although smaller, it's the one I'll keep and take with me into the retirement home. With a 10" swing x 14" (expandable) bed length, it's big enough for 99+% of all projects. It's well-designed, manufactured to close tolerances, heavy, solid, and stout, especially for its size, runs true, operates smoothly, and performs well over the full (and adequate) speed range. It's very capable of handling eccentric blanks or out-of-balance logs provided that it's securely anchored to something massive.

Has been perfect in all respects, no hint of a design or manufacturing issue. About the only downside compared to more expensive, albeit larger, lathes is the lack of electronic speed control, but the belt system is easier to use than I had expected and can be changed with one hand. Highly recommended!

Shipping
I recently receive my order only to find it arrived damaged. The damage was due to the poor handling by UPS. The metal base was broken into to halves due to careless handling. Customer service tried their best to satisfy me but too little too late the experience was bad. Questionable if I'll utilize this service again. Unable to rate the product due to the extended damage. SO I will give it the lowest score.

SUPER LITTLE LATHE
THE BEST MINI LATHE ON THE MARKET. DOES EVERYTHING IT PROMISES. NO COMPLAINTS. I LOVE THE VARIABLE SPEED. DON'T BUY ONE WITHOUT IT. EASY TO CHANGE BELTS FROM ONE SPEED TO ANOTHER.

Jet JML 1014VSI
Fantastic piece of machinery. Other than a slight chip in the paint on the backside it was perfect out of the box.
