This is really an aggravation!
I ordered the the Jet Mini (not VS) and the bed extension in December, 2004. It took a while to get the extension, but I didn't mind that so much. I expected the extension to be of the same quality as the lathe. When it came, it was a piece of junk. The mounting holes were off about 3/32 of an inch from the machined holes in the lathe. After struggling to redrill the holes in the extension, I was able to mount it and it appeared flush, but then I found that the rails on the extension were thicker than the rails on the lathe. After about 2 hours of filing, I could force the tailstock and banjo across the intersection without unscrewing the nut on the cam lock, but the whole thing was and remains an aggravation. The fit and finish is awful. The paint is not even the Jet White, but some tannish white and the iron of the bed was almost black...looked like a totally different grade of iron. I called Jet and they sent me another but it had the exact same problems plus the packaging had been destroyed and in the process, the feet crushed and dings made in the rails. That one is still sitting in ths corner. Called them again. Then they tried to tell me that the extension was designed for the VS Mini and I needed to use an adapter kit ($14). I would not accept that since 1)the adapter kit was for older lathes that had not been machined to accept the extension and 2)the product description said (and still says):
"From the Manufacturer
The JET 708351B 10-by-14-inch mini-lathe...... This model is also machined on the tailstock end to accept the JET 20-inch bed extension, part # 708355."
They finally promised to "custom fit" an extension and send it to me. That was in February. It is now May and I have not seen that "custom fit" extension. If Jet makes this right and stands by their product, I will post a message to that effect and may buy a larger Jet lathe in the future. However, until that happens, I will not recommend their products.

Jet Lath Bed Extension
I purchased the Jet 708355 Bed Extension to go with my Jet Variable speed lath and I must say that the quality exceeds my expectations! Right out of the box, following the instructions, WHAM! Perfect set up! No problem's here. Again, Hat's off to Jet for their great product's and to Amazon for such fast shipping (Recieved it in less than 36 hrs.)

Not a typical JET experience for me
I had to return the first extension received as there was no way to "tweak" it satisfactorily.Second extension arrived a few days ago and is better, but still a problem to align with the lathe bed. I have spend a few hours trying to make it work smoothly, and have made progress, but this is frustrating.

I love the mini lathe, but the extension is not 100%.If you think you will ever want a longer bed than the 14" the Jet mini has, purchase on that comes that way. ... Read more

It Works
This is not a complicated piece of equipment, but an essential piece of equipment for a dust collection system.The ends were all 4 inches and the hose fit snuggly on the end, and the wire clamps held sercurely.Overall, a good link in the chain.

Based on the design and area to cover in the dust collection system, if possible, it is better to use the "Y" fitting rather than the "T".The Y connection allows for a better flow of air, more continuous, than the T.I used 4 Y's and 2 T's.The T's are in the corner of the shop. ... Read more

Works great and easy to install
This is such a great addition to the 14 inch Jet bandsaw that I'm surprised Jet doesn't just make it standard on all their 14 inch saws.I was able to install it by myself, and I'm an old guy.I rigged a rope from the ceiling to support the top arm of the saw, disconnected the bolt, and lowered it to the floor.After that, the installation goes very easy and straightforward.Putting the top arm back on was the opposite of taking it off, but be sure that you can tie off the rope so you can use both hands to tighten the bolt.

The only negative is the blade that ships with the riser block - it's not very good.Buy yourself a selection of Timber Wolf blades to use for resawing.

Having the extra resaw capability if really nice and increases the usefulness of the saw.I recommend this accessory.

Worked for Craftsman with a few modifications!
I have the Craftsman 14" Bandsaw (22424), also made by Reliant? It's a great saw, 2 speed, 1.5 horse motor. Unfortunately, though it [wasn't cheap] less than the Jet, it also had a 6" throat depth, and for resawing planks or rounding corners to turn a bowl, this was just not useful for me. I found the Jet accessory, and with modification time, by myself, I had this thing installed in less than an hour.

In order to proceed successfully, you need a handheld grinder and a table grinder with a decent wheel. You'll notice that while you're installing the kit the instructions are a bit off. You will need to remove the switch plate, but not unplug it as you would on the Jet. You have to do this in order to get at the screw hidden behind it. You also have to remove the 4 screws and take off the lower door to get at the lower plate. You need to grind off (or drill for new) studs that hold the top assembly to the base. There are 4 to grind - the ones on the new spacer block and the ones on the old block. It's pretty apparent, and you have to grind only about a half-inch from the 3/8" studs for the block to fit.

Once it's together (balance the screwhead/washer _inside_ the block while you carefully place the top, it will catch and hold the top upright while you tighten), you'll have to grind a 1/16" or so tenon about 1.5 inches up from the bottom of the saw-foot support column. You'll see what it looks like once you get the old one off. Once that's together, you're set, and can saw away. Mine's been holding up for awhile, even though I worried about the stability with the little studs gone. It's fine, and saws through 10" rounds like they were butter. As everyone else said, get a new blade right away. You'll be glad you did. A 105" 1/2" 3TPI blade works wonders for resawing.

This is a great deal, and gives you a whole new saw. You'll love it! I wish I could give it 10 stars! For [not very much money], I feel like I have a brand new [top of the line] saw.

Great addition....
If you do a lot of resaw or as in my case, make a lot of bandsaw box's this is a great addition. As other's have mentioned its a two person job, but the instructions and materials are top notch.I would also reccommend that you add Carter type guides to your saw at the same time. These really help with the resaw aspect and are a must for the small blades used in making bandsaw box's. The included blade wasn't much but I didnt think it would be, so no dissappointment there. The rest of the parts were good quality and everthing fit well. Took about twenty minutes to install and a few more minutes of adjusting. Thanks to the other reviewer for the tip on reinstalling the power cord. With a Timber Wolf 3/4" resaw blade I can now square up larger pieces of "firewood" to use for my bandsaw box's and it also enables me to get away from the 6x6 dimension that was my standard. I would reccommend this add on to anyone wishing to increase the size of material they can work with. ... Read more

Features

• 3" Spindle Assembly
• For use with JBOS-5 (708404) sander

Reviews (3)

To buy or not to buy? Is it worth it?
This 3" spindle assembly is substantially larger, and heavier than the standard spindles which comes with the Jet Benchtop Osciallating spindle sander. The advantage to having a larger drum is that it creates a flatter surface where the crown meets with the wood. That creates a smoother surface on larger pieces. The smaller spindles that come with the unit, range from the 2" on down to the smallest ones, which are great for getting into smaller corners etc, but on a large flat or gradual curved surface they can create dimples in the surface if you don't keep the material moving.
Is the 3" spindle neccessary? Not really, with a careful technique, you can accomplish it with the smaller spindles, but it definitely makes it easier. Highly recommended.

Makes Your Benchtop Sander Work Like a "Floor Model"
This kit gives you a whole different range of capability with your Jet sander.Take this kit, put your sander on a stable tool stand, and then pat yourself on the back for the money you saved by not buying a floor model sander.With this kit, your sander tackles a much broader range of tasks.

When sanding smooth, flowing curves (like the curvature in a bandsawn box, for instance), the added diameter of this piece keeps the sander from gouging troughs in your workpiece.

I highly recommend it!

What's the application?
The steel band clamp should only be used in one type of application.That being where you are putting two SMOOTH surfaces together, like a garden hose or radiator hose.But with a DC application of a ribbed hose, DO NOT use the steel band clamp, use the wire clamp.

The steel band clamp will only strip and never be fully seated trying to secure the wire rib.The steel banding is not designed to do that task.Whereas, the wire clamp will actually strattle the rib on both sides and create a perfect clamping fit.

I tried to save the twenty cents over the wire clamp, and wound up stripping the clamp thread on about 50% of the applications with the steel band clamps.I antied up and spent the extra cash and got the right product, the wire clamps for the ribbed DC hose.

Don't use them
Don't waste your time with these. I returned 60 of these clampsafter using 12 and found them to strip the thread very easily. Buy the wire clamps.

slippin and a' slidding
I used both types of band clamps- steel band clamps and wire band clamps- with the ribbed hose in my dust collection system.The steel band clamps slipped more, were harder to control going on and didn't seat as well as the the wire band clamps ... Read more

No stops
This is a sturdy little unit but it does not have stops for 90 degrees, 45 degrees, etc.

Taking into account the other review, I would not recommend this unit to a friend asking advice.

Where's the handle?
Potential users:Click on the "See Larger Picture" link.Notice that (threaded) hole on the flat part at the top?That's where the handle should be, the handle that gives you oomph to push and guide your stock with the miter gauge.Makes the cutting LOTS easier and more accurate with larger pieces!
Jeez, including this handle with the gauge couldn't have cost 'em more than a couple bucks--but they don't.Nor do they give you any way that I could find to locate and order one. ... Read more

Disappointing.Needed to be returned
This mortising attachment was purchased for use with the Jet JDP 17MF drill press.The first project was making 3/4 inch mortises in hard maple.The drill press set ring replacement in the mortising attachment would not remain in place under the pressure needed to attempt the mortises in hard maple.This product may work on soft woods or with smaller sized mortise chisel/bits but don't try large cuts in hard woods.

The fence that comes with the attachment is not compatible with the Jet Drill Press Fence (709109).Quick modifications can be made so that the "hold-down" part of the attachment will attach to the fence, but when extracting the chisel/bit with hard wood, there is enough upward pressure to pull the t-tracks up away from the fence table.

After having tightened the set ring replacement as much as possible and still not having it hold, it may be tempting to over tighten the regular set ring when you remove the attachment to use the drill press in its standard form.CAREFULL.The set ring can crack and break if overly tightened.

A real disappoointment.

Great chisels, Mortiser needs work
Jet's mortiser is heavy, well machined cast iron but the hold downs werenot bent to the same radius or cut to the same length. This doesn't effecthow I use the system but it may be a consideration for anyone who will notdevelop their own hold down and fence system to work with their particulardrill press.

The fence is a piece of hollow plastic that needs somebetter way of being clamped tight and square to the drill press's table.(Assuming you can square it with the chisel mounted in the chuck.)

Iwould suggest buying the chisels from Jet. They are better than the two 10year old chisels I have from Delta. These chisels and bits are reallysharp! Mine have stayed that way although I haven't pushed them throughanything harder than soft maple.

Be prepared to spend a lot of timesetting up this mortiser to your drill press. Make engraved markings on thedrill press head and chuck "shoulder" to readily square themortising attachment to the table and fence. I would recommend that youbuild your own fence system and hold downs.

Worked well with little fuss after initial puzzlement
I got the mortising attachment with my Jet 16 1/2" drill press. I have to admit that I was a bit stumped during the initial installation as there were no pictures of the installed unit and no narrative telling methat set ring on the basic drill press needed to be removed to install thechisel holder.

Once I got past the set ring issue things went well forme. However, you need a 6mm Allen wrench to remove the set ring and this isnot included with either the drill press or the mortising attachment. I cansee this being a real annoyance if you don't happen to own a 6mm Allenwrench.

On performance, the tool functioned very well right out of thebox. The chisels were sharp with no noticeable burrs. I have cut testmortises in fir, pine and maple thus far and it does the job. I didn'tnotice excessive heat build up with this mortising attachment as I had witha ShopSmith attachment I used in the past. No smoke thus far! There appearsto be sufficient support and sufficient clearance of the bit within thechisel. ... Read more

Does The Job
I believe the actual picture is upside down. When installed at the back of the planer, the 4" dust opening points straight up.

There's not much to this except its an optional accessory for the planer. It should have been included with the purchase. The unit is made entirely of metal which may account for the hefty price and the slightly out-of-round 4" dust opening. But once you have the dust hose connected, its a pleasure to see the shavings being whisked away. ... Read more

This is the one to get
. . . if you want a base for your Powermatic 66 saw.Don't be put off by comments that this base suffers from having only three wheels.I read this criticism when I first bought my saw and leaned initially toward one of the other after-market bases.I wish I hadn't because it would have been a lot easier to mount my saw before it was fully assembled.I could not be happier with this unit.It is well-built, it makes moving the saw a snap, it sits low to the floor, and it fits the saw well.Yes, it is a bit tippy, but I plan to take 2 minutes to cut a couple of shims for the corners of the one-wheel side.Removing them to move the saw will take no more time than taking the brake off each wheel. ...
