How much does a 10ER plus accessories but minus motor weigh?

I'm curious about shipping costs to the UK, as I've got an as yet unused 2.2kw 3 horse Chinese spindle and vfd that looks like it can be made to fit the 10ER. Well a lot easier than fitting it to a MkV.

A watercooled Shopsmith anyone? :rolleyes:

The speedchanger cleaned up really nice, very tite, these folks kept it oiled.
A cleaning, lubing and some fresh paint and Voila!

This one is wasted. I guess it's time to re-invent something else.
This has a sweet speed changer, now I have 2 and a half speed changers.
Look at LoveJoy, Inc. (http://www.lovejoy-inc.com/products/jaw ... -type.aspx) I think you'll want the L-Type connector L050, with a 5/8" bore (part number 10214), and a SOX Spider (part number 10194).

Model 10 version of the speed changer warning.

Do not turn the crank so fast as to cause the spring at the back of the crank rod(there are two, one on each side of the movable sheave hole) to fully compress. Those springs allow time for the floating(center) sheave to move(just like the floating sheave on the M5/V).

Excessive compressing/malforming will cause them to break.

Looks very good?

I would like to know the distance between '0' and '8' on the indicator and the speeds(two each) corresponding to each tic 0 thru 8. I have created a template for the older version that indicates rpm for each setting. I would like to make one for the newer version also. TIA

i just finished dismantling the latest 10ER acquisition, all the parts MINUS the motor, weigh in at 180 pounds.(about 82 kilos.)
This is NOT including the table, legs and casters.
But, that does include the way tubes. to be safe figure 90 kilos, plus whatever container it is shipped in.

What distance?
Between the graduations on the scale? Or the amount that the arm actually moves when the pointer indicates 1 graduation?
Why the ? after your comment?
