Re: Which Lathe upgrade?
It's not limited to just turning but can be used with larger Drill Bits, think Forsner, which slows them down to avoid burning. The Conventional Mark V Headstock runs between 700 and 5200 RPMs. Scott Markwood from My Growth Rings pointed out that the speed reducer doesn't work great for drilling be...

Re: Is the Smart Motor Speed Dial Ring, Back-Up Spring, part# 504196
Not to hijack the thread ( but I guess I am) so now SS is calling the conventional head stock a smart motor? Even with a search and replace how could that happen.

Re: Idler shaft gets super hot
