Does anyone know the weight, and height, of the cast-iron legs for the
Jet 1442/1642 lathe?
As I recall the weight is about 150 pounds for both legs. They caused a bit
of a wrestling-match during installation.
The bed/leg joint on my machine is 33" above the floor. This includes about
1-1/4" for the adjustment feet.

....waiting for the 1442 to go on sale.
Be careful not to wait too long. I paid $799 for mine a year ago. I
recently saw it in the same store for $915. According to the Jet rep the
prices are going up as a result of the iron costs increase.
