User questions & answers

Question:	Can you do aluminum

User questions & answers

Question:	I have a chuck that is 1"-8tpi female thread (nova 48111), it doesn't fit on this lathe. what adapter should i buy
Answer:	Buy a 3/4" 16 TPI to 1" 8 TPI adapter. If you further questions go to http://www.woodturningz.com/downloads/w1704_ds.pdf for the specs on this machine.
Question:	is there an adapter for the face plate for mounting live center chucks? I bought one but won't line up with holes
Answer:	I'm not sure if they make the adapter to mount on the face plat. I have a 2" diameter three jaw,self centering scroll type chuck that i bought from Amazon that ihave used that works great,but i think that the holes in the face plate is for mounting a backing block to the piece of wood stock to turn a bowl. It says in the manual that you glue the block to the wood your turning and use the holes to screw the block on to face plate. Hope this helped.
Question:	What size wood stock can it hold? How about something like 12'' long by 8" wide piece of wood
Answer:	The length it will hold will be dependant upon what chucks you have in the head and tail stock. The bulkier the chucks, the shorter the length it will handle. I'd say it will hold 12" lengths unless your chucks are sizable. I wouldn't try more than 4" width stock unless it was short. Although the lathe may hold the stock, it would be too much for the motor. The intended purpose of this lathe is to make small things like ink pens, Christmas ornaments, small toys like tops or yo-yo's and tool handles etc. If you want to mount 12" X 8" stock you should be looking at full sized lathes.
Question:	is there anyway to secure to a bench
Answer:	Yes. It has has three holes in the base that you can bolt it down with. I bolted mine down on a metal stand. It holds it down real solid. Mine is the Shop Fox W1704 also. It is well built. I really like mine. Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	Will 1221 tail stock accept #2 Morse taper drill chuck
Answer:	Yes! Just be sure that the tail stock hole and morse taper are clean, otherwise the #2 morse taper can be difficult to remove...
Question:	has this lathe have a indexing head
Answer:	William, yes this lathe has an indexing head. I have not yet used the feature but it is done with a spring loaded pin which you lock into anyone of 24 positions. The spring loaded pin in screwed in once the pin is set to hold it in place.Rich F
Question:	Is this Ron Swanson approved
Answer:	Yes, Ron personally blesses each unit as it’s loaded onto a truck.
Question:	Do you need to move a belt to change speeds? Or is there a dial or switch
Answer:	This lathe has a variable speed controller, so the speeds may be changed using the simple rotating knob. To provide speed ranges to suit any situation, especially for the more experienced turner, there is a three step pulley. This arrangement allows the variable speed controller to adjust speeds from 60 to 900 rpm on the low step of the pulley, 110 -1800 rpm on the 2nd step (medium), and a high speed range of 220 -3600 rpm on the the 3rd step. The belt need only be changed if you want to move to a different range of speeds. This is a very simple process.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this have a swing away for the tailstock
Answer:	No it doesn’t but you can get an extension and move the tail stock further away from the head stock. This gives plenty of working room. It’s an awesome lathe.
Question:	Does the headstock rotate as well as slide
Answer:	The newest 1640 models do not rotate. JET discontinued that feature.
Question:	Is this lathe available without the legs for a cheaper price
Answer:	I don’t think so. It’s pretty big to be mounting on a bench.
Question:	Does this come with wheels
Answer:	no. Given the weight, wheels would be a bad idea. IT is on adjustable feet and you can slide it to position.

Answer:	Yes they are both #2 taper
Question:	Does this lathe have a 1 inch 8tpi
Answer:	yes
Question:	Does Rikon or another manufacturer make a steady rest for this lathe
Answer:	Carter products and Ron Brown's Best (Peacetree), make steady rests suitable for. 10 inch lathes. Carter Products is about $375 and Ron Brown's Best is about $160. I believe either can be adapted to Rikon 105, 10" lathe.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do i need to have a high speed bench grinder or slow speed

Question:	are these benjamins best
Answer:	Yes, these are the Benjamins Best tools. I'm enjoying them very much.
Question:	What type of grinding wheel should I use to sharpen these chisels, being made with M2 High Speed Steel
Answer:	For scrapers and gouges, I use a belt sander. For skews and bedans I use a wet stone grinder. I use a polishing wheel with emery compound to hone all my blades between sharpenings.
Question:	Are these "Benjamins Best" (as recommended by Wood Magazine)? Description doesn't say
Answer:	My set has "Benjamins Best" stamped right on the handles.

Question:	Can this be used in making wood turned pens
Answer:	It comes with the pieces to be able to perform all the functions that it displays, yes, however the size is on such a small scale that you are putting way more effort into trying to use this than you are getting out of it. This wasn't good for anything that I purchased it for, and isn't adaptable to larger scale pieces. Doesn't have a lot of power at all to perform any of the 'tasks' it boasts to accommodate.
Question:	can the chuck take 1/4 inch metal rod
Answer:	Don't buy from this company. The lathe they sent was very poorly made and we had an awful time returning it. Amazon had to get involved.
Question:	Is the chuck removable and if so, what is the diameter of the drive shaft
Answer:	It came with 1 tool
Question:	How is this machine cnc? is there a data port or card slot
Answer:	No, it doesn't. Actually I returned it unopened after buying it for this very reason. They were very understanding and refunded the full amount. As the description says it works well with "Plastic and Wood" but not metal.

Question:	Can i get this in 1 1/4" - 8 tpi
Answer:	Check out item LA11418. This adaptor may work for you.
Question:	Will a nova adapter work with this chuck? I have an old Rockwell 46010 I want to add this too. The only adapter I see for 7/8-14 is for Nova Chuck
Answer:	Hello,No, the Nova adapter will not work with this.Thanks
Question:	I need an adapter to fit 7/8 x 16tpi left hand
Answer:	No lathe has a left-hand-threaded spindle. If one did, the work would spin off the lathe every time you hit the 'on' button.
Question:	Is psi csc 3000c barracuda reversible
Answer:	There is no set-screw of any kind to maintain a safe secure hold of the chuck to the lathe while running in reverse. I do not on mine and would not without something like that available.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this stand work with a jet jwl-1015 lathe
Answer:	Yes. I am using the same lathe on mine. However I used a board between the lathe and stand to give me a small table as well.
Question:	How wide are the support legs on the bottom of the stand perpendicular to the legs
Answer:	The rounded support bottoms are 2 foot from end to end. So pushed up against the wall my lathe is 1 foot out to center.
Question:	Can casters be added
Answer:	Yes. You can add casters to anything
Question:	Would this stand work for nova comet ii
Answer:	This stand is adjustable to fit a wide variety of lathes. While I don't have a Nova Comet II, I believe that it would since it will adjust. I have a Central Machinery and it fit just fine.
