Hi people
I am new to turning. I’ve been a novice woodworker for a long time but never turned. I’ve long considered it but never pulled the trigger. Being that I seem to have a lot time on my hands due to the current world condition I decided to give it a go.
Ok, here’s my question. I’m sure this has been asked before. In all my research I have narrowed my choices down to 2 units, those being the Rikon 70-220vsr and the Jet JWL 1221vs. For the sake of argument assume that both units cost the same. Based on quality, ease of use, features and versatility, which is the better choice?
I have already researched other units such as Nova, HF, Delta, PSI, Laguna, Oneway and more and have already eliminated them for various reasons. I am only considering the Rikon or the Jet. I think I have over researched them and rather than clarify the choice all I did was to further muddy the water. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
