  • Amazing lathe but do not order from acme tool!
Style: Wood Lathe
As always jet is amazing and stands behind thier product ive been turning for 6 years and have owned nothing but jet lathes. However if you order this from amazon do not go through Acme Tools, when it arrived it was dented and the tailstock waa dented and non functional along with the wire box on the headstock which was sheared off. They have refused any sort of partial refund past 500 which wouldnt even cover parts. The only option they offer is a return and refund which if you look at thier reviews doesnt always happen. ... show more

  • Very well built equipment.
Style: Wood Lathe
Just getting started in wood turning and it was easily set up and ran perfect from the start. Very easy to make adjustments and the motor is much quieter than I would have imagined.

  • Make sure the index plate does not slip off the bushing of the head stock.
Style: Wood Lathe
The lathe itself is excellent. It's solid as a rock and a ton of fun. I really appreciate the indexing head. I did have an issue when assembling the head stock. The index plate slipped out of the bushing which was not allowing it to rest on the table correctly. BE CAREFUL. If you try to tighten the head down to the table you may damage the soft material of the bushing. Customer Support was quick to help and I was able to turn the head stock upside down and re position the index plate and the bushing. Turning it back over was tricky but I managed. Crisis avoided and am now a happy turner! ... show more

  • Best lathe I have owned!
Style: Wood Lathe
It's perfect for me. I bought the extension bed too for large outboard turning of wooden bowls. It is perfect in every way. Way better than the two green ones I've had. Jet is awesome and amazon delivered it via freight right into my shop.

  • High Quality Prouduct
Style: Wood Lathe
Love the lathe, Plenty of power, Love the swing head stock for my bowls, Quality product Fast shipping. The only thing I really don't like is the variable speed doesn't go low enough 400 rpm, for some things is not low enough. Other than that it is awesome.

  • Not a good experience.
Style: Wood Lathe
First of all, the banjo cracked while outboard turning in the first week. Probably because 400 rpm minimum speed is dangerously fast for some projects. It vibrates the machine all over the place. Also, the belt snapped in week 2 and the knob for changing the speed is a sad design. Save your money and buy something with more control over speed. ... show more
