Love that video... I'm gonna buy a lathe similar to yours and I've learned a lot from you. And just in 8 minutes :D Thank you very much. Best regards from Poland, Greg
The price of a small lathe can vary quite a bit - Naturally I'm going to try to sell you on a JET lathe (and prices vary.) Honestly, choosing a lathe is a big decision. Take some time, check out ALL the brands, and decide what YOU like. Now, a mini lathe is great - but if you are at all interested (and have the space)- I suggest you look at full size lathes too. You'll still be able to turn small projects, but have the ability to move up to larger projects when you are ready - Good Luck!
i am mostly going to be turning bowls and ocasionally spindle work do you suggest the jwl 1410 or 1220 or 1440. there is one problem i am in canada and i cant find jets anywhere on delta's. i am new to turning and i have used a jet 1642 and it was amazing and convenient do you know of any places in canada a jet would be available?
Unfortunately - we have licensing conflicts with another company called JET in Canada. Because of this, our JET Tools cannot be sold direct to Canadian residents. We have been working to resolve this for some time now. Sorry! If you have the available resources - I would suggest trying a Powermatic... but it is a much bigger investment.
you should do what bombardier did they didnt think americans would like the name because it is french so they changed it to can-am in america you guys could start a branch because theremis a huge woodworking market in canada. i have read many forums that are full of canadian look for jet lathes
Don't give up yet - Powermatic is working on the possibility of bringing some smaller lathes into the product lineup. Thanks for your suggestions! It's great to hear that there are people interested in our lathes in Canada!
Thanks for your question - as a rule for smaller projects like this, and also the garden dimple, I like to use Poplar. It's soft, easy to turn, and pretty inexpensive!

Did he say that he was going to start with 50 grit then switch straight to 220 grit? That seems to be an awfully big jump...
