Tools and Hardware Reviews of JET JML 1014VSI 10-Inch-by-14-Inch Variable Speed Indexing Mini Lathe

Customer Review: Excellent little lathe perfect for small turning production or hobby
Summary: 5 Stars

Impressive little lathe. I bought mine about a year and a half ago, (March 2008) and I've been using it almost daily ever since. I love the way that its so quiet. I also have a Shop Smith Mark V and when running it in lathe mode, ( or any other) it makes so much noise that you can't hear anything else over it. this little lathe is whisper quiet at all speeds. All you hear is a soft hummm. I've been turning mostly pens so I don't know how well it would perform turning something larger but its half hp motor should be able to handle almost anything that will fit between centers. The variable speed on it has definitely spoiled me. After having it I can't imagine trying to run the lathe without it. It does have a 3 step pulley in it giving it 3 speed ranges. For the smaller items leaving it in the mid range or high will still give you enough speed variation to run a complete part from rough turning to finish polishing without having to change speed range. The only complaints that I have about it is the live center that it came with for one. The bearing went out in it after only 6 or 8 months of use. And the on/off toggle switch for another. I've had to replace it once, about six months ago and its starting to go out again already. Its definitely been worth the investment and I would recommend it to anybody wanting to get started turning wood on a low budget. Don't waist your money on a cheaply made machine. After trying this little lathe if you decide that your not that interested in wood turning it should still have a high resale value and you will be able to get most of your money back out of it.

JML-1014IVS: 10"x 14" Mini Lathe with Indexing Head Model 708375VS replaces the popular JML-1014. Without changing the basic reliable lathe, Jet has added arbor locks and 24 position indexing.

This powerful cast iron machine provides stable, virtually vibration free turning.Variable Speed. 10" swing over the bed. 14" Spindle capacity - which can be increased by adding a 20" bed extension. 1" x 8 TPI Spindle. #2 Morse Taper on head and tailstock.

Offering the same innovative features as the JML-1014I Mini Lathe, but with the addition of variable speed ranges of 500 to 3900 RPM, arbor locks, and indexing options, the JET JML-1014VSI 10 x 14-Inch Variable Speed Indexing Mini Lathe is a powerful workhorse that gives you complete control over any project you can dream up.

Powerful 1/2 HP, Six-Speed Motor for Control and Flexibility
Able to support stock measuring up to 10 inches in diameter and 14 inches in length, the JML-1014VSI owes its robust performance to a powerful 1/2 HP, totally enclosed, fan-cooled motor that powers six spindle speeds ranging from 500 to 3,975 RPMs. The motor's flexibility allows you to tackle a range of projects and materials without bogging down your lathe.

Cast-Iron Bed for Stability; Spindle Lock for Fast Fluting and Veining
A heavy-duty cast-iron lathe bed adds stability while dramatically limiting vibrations during operation so you enjoy precise results. Additionally, the spindle features a lock that makes it easier to remove faceplates, chucks, and other accessories with one hand, and it has indexing capabilities for fast and efficient fluting and veining operations.

Live Center and Hollow Tailstock for Efficient Boring
To help complete projects quickly and easily, and to tackle a range of jobs, the live center has a removable pin for boring through stock, while the hollow tailstock allows you to perform long hole boring for lamps and other vessels.

Self-Ejecting Tailstock and Cam-Lock Mechanism for Safe, Easy Operation
Designed to be extremely user friendly, the JML-1014VSI's tailstock is also self-ejecting for safe and easy removal; the tool also offers a two-inch ram capacity. Additionally, a cam-lock mechanism allows tool-free adjustments of the headstock, tailstock, and tool-rest base. Finally, quick release levers make for easy and accurate positioning of the tool-rest and tail stock.

Finally, to help protect both your workspace and your materials, the JML-1014VSI's benchtop features four non-skid rubber feet to keep the machine stable during use.

This mini lathe measures approximately 10.25 x 28.1 x 14.1 inches (WxHxL), weighs 80 pounds, and is backed by a five-year warranty.

About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich Products
Opened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you'll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.

What's in the Box
Mini lathe, one six-inch tool-rest, one faceplate, one drift rod, one live center, one spur center, one pair of safety goggles, one owner's manual, one warranty card, one three-millimeter hex wrench, and one five-millimeter hex wrench.
