Editorial Review:
Keep your shop floor clear with HTC's Mobile Base System. The HTC Mobile Base provides a solid, stable stance that requires no tilting or adjusting, and also allows you to quickly move it when not in use. You can reposition the base for cutting long stock, as well as freeing up space on your shops floor. With this base your machine is held 3/4 inches off the floor at all times, eliminating the need to recalibrate those important machine setting that can be thrown off by raising and lowering the machine. This welded, one-piece base features the HTC exclusive three-point system, and two rigid wheels with locks. The base is constructed of heavy-gauge steel, and full-welded for strength and finished appearance. It also includes one locking swivel wheel to make moving your machine in any direction a breeze. The base is specifically designed for the Jet JWBS-14CS 14-inch bandsaw.

Jet 14" Drill Press:
I purchased the Jet 14" Drill Press and was very pleased with the assembly which went very smoothly. The instructions were fairly clear. The tool appears to be a well-built tool that can handle a lot of use in my shop. I purchased the mortise and chisels set from Jet as well and I was very displeased with the lack of instructions for assembly and use of the mortise and chisel component. The drill press was a great buy, but Jet needs to improve on their documentation for the mortise attachment. Jet also... more info
Pricey but excellent product:
Fast. Easy. Sturdy. Works like a dream. Costs too much. 'Nuff said.
