I have a mini Jet and a 14X42 Jet. The mini is not variable speed but the 42 is. I love the speed option. Changing for roughing , then speed up for turning and faster for sanding. I don't plug turn w/ 42 . I turn bats on the 42 . The mini is just fine for my plug turning as is but if I had to get another mini I would spend the xtra for the variable speed.
