 This extension allows for longer projects, adds weightJul 04, 2004
By David Swanson
I bought this little lathe with the extension with the idea of saving some money since all I wanted to do is turn spindle legs.
I actually got it free with my lathe purchase. It fit fine, was easy to install and adds some heft which is always helpful to reduce vibration.

 Not a typical JET experience for meSep 09, 2004
By Herbert C. Knowlton
"H.K."
I had to return the first extension received as there was no way to "tweak" it satisfactorily. Second extension arrived a few days ago and is better, but still a problem to align with the lathe bed. I have spend a few hours trying to make it work smoothly, and have made progress, but this is frustrating.
I love the mini lathe, but the extension is not 100%. If you think you will ever want a longer bed than the 14" the Jet mini has, purchase on that comes that way.

quality problems correctedJan 03, 2007
By Sharon
Looks as if the earlier problems with hole alignment have been corrected. This one went onto the jet vs mini with no alignment problems or needs to shim or shave. Works as advertised. Installation was just tightining two bolts setting the heigth of a mounting plate and leveling with the included feet.

With a little tweaking for fit it works great.....Aug 23, 2004
By A. J. Jones
"mx265"
With a little tweaking for fit it works great.....
I received this thru Amazon..which as always, may not be fast, but certainly fantastic with customer service...Besides, if speed was a factor, they offer additional shipping options...Not that it helps when they're out of stock...
But onto the extension itself...What should have been 10 minutes of setup turned into 2 hours of drilling and aligning two holes...The holes that are used to attach the extension to the lathe bed were off by 1\4 of an inch...I could attach the extension, but then the tail would not slide onto the extension at all be cause the beds were not lined up....
Soo it turned into a project trying to redrill the holes and test fit it, and then drill a little more and test fit it....
The metal bracket I still cannot make fit between the two beds...Still trying to work that out.....But the two beds now meet and align perfectly and the head and tail are now perfectly centered.....
Let me say Jet is an awesome company...Their equipment is built to last and I continue to have full faith in their products...Manufacturing defects happen, so as long as it is workeable, then that's good enough for me....
So I would say buy one, because they are awesome, once you get it lined up anyways.....

Jet Bed Extension Fit PerfectlyJan 12, 2009
By Robert G. Bohn
Product arrived in tact, and contained all the advertised parts. It took longer to unpack than to set up on my Jet JML-1014 lathe, and it fit perfectly. Highly recommended.
