|  New toy I ordered me a Jet Midi with bed extension today. Also a set of 8 chisels. So when I get it in and set up I'll have lots of questions for you turners. I ordered from Amazon today (Tuesday) and they said I would have it by Thursday and free shipping.

| Suhweeeet!! Be sure and provide some feedback on it after you get it so those of use that are considering a lathe can make a more informed decision.

 | I've heard good things about the Jet from people who have them .. ISTR that that is what Bill Young has now .. I must admit I might have gone for one myself had there been any dealers round here. The General dealer is just down the road from me though and seems to have a reputation for good service in the event of any problems so that clinched it ..

| Congrats Bruce. Tools are fun (or is it that fun is tools?). Steve, perhaps Fox Chapel Lathe and Scrollsaw Arts & Crafts would be a good beginning. Tor

| Jet MIDI? What size is that? The small bench top or the 1236 like what I have? Either way they are quiet smooth and you will have a ball. Be prepared to buy all the other thing you will NEED once you start turning.
