Jet Tools

[ByronBlack]

I have a Jet 14" Bandsaw, and absolutely love it, i've also used a Jet Spindle-Sander, and that too was superb.

However, various members of family are looking to help me kit out my workshop, and there are some nice looking jet tools that fit that purpose, but they are quite inexpensive, and i'm wondering if they are 'cheap' and 'nasty' or just good value.

I'm looking at the Jet Drill Press:

and the Jet Chop Saw:

Does anyone have any experience, or reviews of these tools?

Hi Byron

This is their entry benchtop range and is aimed at the hobby woodworker.

Cheers

so, you would perhaps recommend investing in something a little more heavy-duty?

the chopsaw looks exactly the same as my ryobi, if so then i would spend a bit more. It cuts good but jumps a bit at the start, gotta hold on tight :shock:
