Hi Alan,
If you some day upgrade to a larger lathe, you can take the
McNaughton system with you. It will work on most size lathes. I got
burned by buying a Oneway system for my Nova, then I up-graded to a
larger lathe and I was stuck buying a new Oneway base unit to fit the
new lathe, costing $187.00 It took a long time to find someone that
was intrested in purchasing the old base unit.
The McNaughton system is the coring system of choise in my circle of
friends.

I was trying to decide which coring system to get. Being that I have a Jet
JWL-1236 and am fairly new to it, I was having some trouble deciding. I'm
looking at the McNaughton System, and the Woodcut Bowl Saver. After reading
some of this group's archives, I've found that perhaps my lathe is a bit
underpowered for the McNaughton System. So, leaning toward the Woodcut Bowl
Saver, I have a few questions for those who have one, and hopefully, those
who also own the same lathe as I. I'd like to hear some comments about the
Bowlsaver's use on underpowered lathes. Can I expect it to work well with my
Jet, or is this a pipe dream that I would be able to use ANY of this type
tool on my lathe? Also, I'm a bit confused from the Bowlsaver's website, I
can't decide what comes in the kit. Is it just one size tool (for a single
size core), or is it a complete set like the McNaughton System? Also, to
simplify my ordering process, if I decide to go that way, which size tool
post does my lathe have?
