JET JWL-1220 Woodturning Lathe
The JET
JWL-1220
represents the
next step in
our hugely
popular mini
lathe series.
With 12
”
swing and 20
”
between
center
capacities
plus an array
of user-
friendly
features, the
JET JWL-1220 more than fills the void between traditional mini and full-sized lathes.
Add the JWL-1220BE 28
”
bed extension and the JET JWL-1220 between centers
capacity expands to nearly 50
”
, rivaling that of much larger and substantially more
expensive woodturning lathes.
In its standard form, (left) the JWL-1220 is a very capable lathe. Add the bed (and
stand) extension (left) and its between centers capacity rivals that of many “full-sized”
lathes!
The JET JWL-1220 is based on the tried and true JET cast iron technology for maximum
accuracy, durability and long term stability. Precisely machined components and high-
end ball bearings are used throughout the JET JWL-1220, insuring long-term accuracy
and smooth running stability.
Power and Speed
The motor is mounted below the bed
with the belt tension handles up front
for quick speed changes.
The JET JWL-1220 features a 3/4HP TEFC (totally
enclosed fan cooled) motor (115V only) that handles
the increased capacities with ease. The additional
power also maintains consistent rpm through a much
wider range of turning situations.
