Jet sent me a run capacitor...for $22.00!

That fixed it.

But after using the HF mini lathe my Jet looked a little shabby after 12 years.
Let's face it cast iron isn't the best surface to hold paint.

I thought for sure I had some beige paint but alas...all I had was green.

So now my Jet lathe matches the Harbor Freight lathe.

I'll take pictures after another few light coats of green and I pull the masking tape off.

That crappy old Harbor Freight lathe I bought foe $99 is going in a garage sale.
