Editorial Review:

Motor Voltage: 115/230V

Serious woodworkers will love the durable, stable, heavy cast iron platform of the 14-by-42-inch Jet 1442 Lathe. The 1 HP, 115-volt, single phase, 8-speed drive motor can be used right out of the box without having to add expensive high voltage circuits. The large capacity, 42 inches between centers, allows for the turning of up to 14-inch pieces of heavy stock. In addition to the 4-inch ram travel, the movable head slides effortlessly along the full length of the bed locking in any position required by the user. The head can be rotated 180 degrees for turning bowls or blanks larger than 14 inches. The variable speed drive motor can be adjusted in 8 different positions to provide speeds ranging from 450 to 3000 RPM. The operator can easily set the proper speed whether roughing, general cutting, or sanding. There is also an adjustable tool rest, which can be extended for turning bowls. Weighing in at around 200 pounds, the Jet 1442 lathe will stay balanced and in place no matter how large the project. I'm sure you'll be amazed at just how quiet and how well balanced the 1442 is. --C. Dwight Barnett

Customer Reviews:

Avg. Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0

Great product:

I spent alot of time checking out which lathe I wanted to buy in this size. Most of my woodworking stationary tools are Delta but I didn't feel that they made a comparable unit in this category. After having this for a couple of years now I can still say this is absolutely a great purchase. Speed changes are effortless; heavy construction virtually eliminates vibration (even when I decide to turn large out of balance blocks). Easy set up, easy to use and high quality add up to a best buy.

NOT a bowl lathe; some issues:

I've owned and used a Jet JWL1442 for about 2 1/2 years. Although it does have some very good features, it also has some serious drawbacks which potential buyers should be aware of.
The worst feature, from a design perspective, must be the position of the motor. Mounted to the right of the mechanism (i.e. of the belts driving the spindle), the end of the motor extends into the area of the swing (actually, beyond the end of the spindle!), such that some blanks and turnings are blocked. This is... more info

Jet 1442 lathe:

The Jet 1442 wood lathe has everything you need for turning as a novice or professional turner. It is very stable allowing for some off center turning. The variable speed adjustment is easy to use and increases the efficiency of the project.

High Quality, User Friendly Lathe:

I want this review to be helpful to all who may read it so I have divided my comments into four sections, 1) My motivation for purchasing the Jet 1442, 2) My experience with the packing and shipping of this heavy machine, 3) My thoughts on the assembly of the Jet 1442, and 4) My experience using the Jet 1442.
