Jet mini versus Leda mini
Hi all,
newbie woodturner here looking at a mini lathe to buy. I have seen the Jet mini in the flesh but not the leda and would like to ask opinions on one versus the other. I have a heap of jet gear in the workshop and have been very happy with it but the jet mini seems a bit smaller in capacity than the leda. Also the cost of the lathe with extension bed is around $313 for the leda ( from leda's site) and $539 for the Jet. Can there be that much difference between the two?
I noticed a few of you have these machines and would appreciate comments on the quality and user friendliness of both machines.
Also, I did the centre line up trick on a jet mini straight out of the box and it lined up perfectly - are the ledas the same??
thanks in advance.
