Hello everyone. I am getting ready to purchase some equipment to start my wood turning hobby. to start with I am getting;
Jet 1221VS 12'' x 21'' Variable Speed Wood Lathe with stand (im not 100% sure about the stand)
Nova 23245 SuperNova 2 Chuck with Popular Chuck Accessories Bundle
California Air Tools 365CR 5-Gallon Pressure Pot for Casting
Rikon 82-100 8'' Wet Sharpener
Oneway Wolverine Grinding Jig
Turning Tool Set
Im also considering the Laguna 12x16 but im not crazy about the length compacity. I prefer the 21" of the Jet.
I have zero experience with both lathes so I would appreciate your input and thoughts.
I plan on turning a variety of things and possibly pool cues some day ) although I would have to get an extension for cue work.
Is there anything that is missing from the list that jumps out at you?
Does anyone make a router jig that can mount to a lathe?
Is the lathe tool set I picked a good choice for general work?
I am sure there are several things I will get in the future but I am hoping that this will be a good start.
Chris
