I have an opportunity to purchase a 1979 Jet mill. Its model number JVM-942K. It’s in very good shape as far as I can tell however I would like to go through it and replace any worn parts. The paint does look a little rough but I figured that’s to be expected for a machine that’s 40 years old. I couldn't find any play on any of the axis. It turns on and runs smoothly. I’m sure once I take it apart and start going through it that I’m going to find some worn parts that need replaced so I’m a little concerned about parts availability. I really won’t know what parts I need until I get into it. I’m just looking for a little guidance. Does anyone know a source for parts for this particular machine? Is it worthwhile trying to restore this machine? It’s definitely a Bridgeport clone but from what I’ve read parts interchangeability is hit or miss. I called Jet and they said good luck finding parts, they were able to send me some old manuals with diagrams so that was kinda helpful. I’m pretty sure it was made in Taiwan and from what I’ve heard lots of these were made in the same factory and sold under different names. Any information would be helpful. Maybe someone on here has worked on a similar machine? Thanks
