Well worth the cost...Dec 02, 2004
By KRASSEL We recently added this base to our Jet Mini Lathe. As with most jet products the fit and finish was excellent. Went together without any problems, including the extension. It is very solid, and does not add any vibration to the operation of the lathe. I built a shelf to go on the crossbar and we use it to store extra chucks and other misc items we typically use. I also tacked a couple pieces of angle iron to the backside to support a dust and chip chute we made. Hooked to the 4" dust collection system it really does a nice job of pulling most of the chips away from the lathe base. Makes cleanup fairly easy. The base is not designed to mount casters on, so I mounted the base to a 11/4 thick piece of plywood and mounted the casters to that. Our shop area is pretty small, so most of the big tools have to be mobile.I used Grizzly 3" locking casters, as they lock the wheel and the swivel mech. with one lever. This works out real well, still very solid. The added benefit was that now my sweetie can sit on her stool and work on the lathe (she primarily does small stuff)at just the right height for her, yet I don't have to stoop to work on the machine. This is a great addition to the Jet Mini Lathe or the Delta Midi. Recommend it highly.

sturdy lathe standJan 09, 2007
By kaysa I didn't have very high hopes for this stand at first. I figured that any strong table would give my Delta midi lathe better support than a flimsy stand. However, this stand is compact, easily transportable, adjustable, and pretty much elimanates all vibration from my lathe.
The price might be a bit of a turn off at first, but its worth the money. The adjustable height option is also fantastic, since workbenches are almost never at the 'perfect' height for everyone.

Lathe StandFeb 17, 2006
By J. Wilbur I ordered this stand with the JET mini variable speed lathe. They arrived together. I had the lathe on the stand in about an hour. As a non-woodworking grandma I found it easy to assemble and not so heavy that I couldn't do it by myself. I am waiting for a rolling cart to arrive so that I can wheel it around in the barn and use it where it is easy to clean up after use. Sweep those shaving out the door! Buy one and you will like it. Sure saves on workbench space.

Must have for mini latheNov 27, 2002
By Jake Ledgerwood Unless space isn't an issue, you'll want this stand. Since I use the lathe less frequently than the other tools in my shop, it's nice to throw a dust cover over the set and roll it out of the way without giving up counter space.

worthwhile addition to latheJan 27, 2006
By J. Allen

It's not like you couldn't build something this good or use a Workmate, as I did for a couple of years, but this stand is nicely made, stable, and easy to assemble. The paint and finish are the same as the lathe.
I have two Jet mini lathes, one of which I made a stand for (the non-variable speed), and a variable speed which I bought this stand for because I didn't have time to make one and the Workmate does not allow a compfortable stance while working. The lathe is fairly small and you need to be able to get up close to it or you will find that the bending over for any length of time causes back aches. The Jet JML-S is built without restriction at the front and allows a height adjustment range of 3-4 inches.
I initially set it all the way up, but found that about the middle was right for me. Quick and easy change.
Sometimes it's worth it to spend a little more and save some time.
