Tools and Hardware Reviews of JET 709163 Mini Lathe Turning Set, 5-Piece

Customer Review: Better than expected.... Very pleased.
Summary: 5 Stars

I ordered this set several weeks back while it was on backorder. Found another set locally for about half the price, but it was of extremely low quality, and I was concerned that the Jet set would be of similar sub-standard construction.

The Jet tools arrived and they are great. There's a sticker on the box that says made in Sheffield, England, and the red box looks suspiciously like the red box on my set of full-sized Sorby tools. Come to think of it, The handles look an awful lot like the Sorby's too. The same set from Sorby goes for about $120 retail.

A little bit of honing, and they went to work. Nice balance.. a pleasure to work with.
