New "Legs" for Jet Mini Lathe
Larry in Lima
>Well, I got tired of the cheesey little plastic feet getting broken, and ordered new "legs" from Enco. They have a hard nylon base, and are rated for 250 lbs. More than adequate.
They are a little long, but work just fine, create no problems. The lathe is sturdier feeling / acting now too. Thought I'd mention it in case anyone else was looking for something similar.
You have to supply your own washer/nut. Total cost per leg was about a buck.
I have been using the lathe "free-standing" and have no problems doing it. Larry
