Outboard turning on jet 1642
Hi Gang
I am interested in doing some oversize turning on my jet 1642 (greater that 500 m/m dia) and was wondering if any has purchased the outrigger setup for the 1642 or better still made one and can give any advice on making your own.
Cheers

Been a while since I saw it but maybe google for it. It was someone had taken an outboard adapter for a Vicmarc (I think) and adapted it to a Jet 1642. Didn't look that difficult, drilled a couple of holes in the legs and I think they had to add a couple of shims and it was done.
Sorry but I don't have it here.
