Serious woodworkers will love the durable, stable, heavy cast iron platform of the 14-by-42-inch Jet 1442 Lathe. The 1 HP, 115-volt, single phase, 8-speed drive motor can be used right out of the box without having to add expensive high voltage circuits. The large capacity, 42 inches between centers, allows for the turning of up to 14-inch pieces of heavy stock. In addition to the 4-inch ram travel, the movable head slides effortlessly along the full length of the bed locking in any position required by the user. The head can be rotated 180 degrees for turning bowls or blanks larger than 14 inches. The variable speed drive motor can be adjusted in 8 different positions to provide speeds ranging from 450 to 3000 RPM. The operator can easily set the proper speed whether roughing, general cutting, or sanding. There is also an adjustable tool rest, which can be extended for turning bowls. Weighing in at around 200 pounds, the Jet 1442 lathe will stay balanced and in place no matter how large the project. I’m sure you’ll be amazed at just how quiet and how well balanced the 1442 is. --C.
