Jet 1442 legs
Does anyone know the weight, and height, of the cast-iron legs for the Jet 1442/1642 lathe? Thanks, Andy Barss |

I've read the weight is 162lbs for 2 legs, and the height, not sure but
seemed just right for me at my local Woodcraft store. Just waiting for the 1442 to go on sale. STEMO |

Why don't they sell it or the 3520 without legs? Or do they, and I haven't
seen it. In my case the legs would be replaced by a cabinet anyway, if the youngest ever graduates from college. "Wood Turn It Dont Burn It" wrote in message ...

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. ***************************** STEMO said: ....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. |
