The Little Jet Lathe That Just Might Could

My Jet belt drive would turn some steel so smooth,it looked nickel plated! (may have been leaded steel) I can't get that with my gear head 16". I can with my Hardinge belt drive HLVH,fortunately.!!:)
 
Mike,

That is so solidly built it can even hold a Bridgeport with ease. Must not be your first rodeo.

That looks like it will survive a shipping company better than most I have seen. Looks nice.
