      Comments about JWL-1220VS, 12-in X 20-in Variable Speed Wood Lathe:

      Bought this machine then of course the Delta version came out a few months following which is far superior. Motor burned up year after I bought it but Jet sent a new one within 3 days. Bought this lathe as a back up to my General 20260VS for detail work.

              Upgraded to this midi lathe size from a Jet mini to allow slightly larger projects. This lathe is still great for smaller projects like pens and bottle stoppers, and the variable speed is really handy and a time saver. Plenty of power for anything that can fit between centers too!

                Not so great for the big jobs, put perfect for the small to medium jobs.This little lathe has good speed control. I've made tool handles and pens and will try my first bowl soon. I've bought the 28" extension, so I'll be trying small table legs also. With sharp tools, I don't think I'll have any trouble with these. The 3/4 HP motor gives good power. I'm well pleased with my purchase.

                  The product is an excellent lathe for a hobbyist or a professional intending on smaller size work. It is well designed compact and neat in terms of accessories and location of functional attributes. Keep up the good work. Enjoyed setting it up and begin using it the first day it landed ....at my doorstep.

                    Comments about JWL-1220VS, 12-in X 20-in Variable Speed Wood Lathe:

                    Have been looking for a lathe for almost a year now. Finally desided on the Jet 1220vs.I also purchased the stand and bed extension.I wanted a lathe that would fit my small shop but still be able to do larger and longer spindle projects.I was a little skeptical about the 3/4 hp motor being able to handle a larger project, but it is doing very well. Good power; the variable speed is great. You are able to change the speed of the lathe motor with the turn of the knob within the different belt settings which are not hard to change.It seems to be a well built sturdy lathe. I have had the lathe for two weeks. Have turned a few small spindles and an 8 inch x 19 inch cedar log I had in the back yard:I turned a lamp post out of it. I have not used the bed extension yet because I needed to purchase the stand extension. I could not find it on the CPO Jet web site even though I searched the part number.The larger Jet variable speed lathe did not fit my budget or my shop, this one fits well.
