Lathe opinion - Pirate - 12-18-2019 Speed reducer caught my interest. RE: Lathe opinion - Pirate - 12-18-2019 The speed reducer caught my eye. RE: Lathe opinion - Turner52 - 12-18-2019 I have never seen that before. Would be interested if anyone has any input on that motor RE: Lathe opinion - MichaelMouse - 12-18-2019 (12-18-2019, 04:41 PM)Turner52 Wrote: I have never seen that before.

Pretty short bed for an iron lathe, though it might just be perspective. RE: Lathe opinion - Pirate - 12-20-2019 I think it's a standard capacitor start motor with a variable speed belt drive. RE: Lathe opinion - crokett™ - 12-20-2019 I was thinking the same as pirate. If everything is solid and it runs and the headstock spindle is 1x8 then it would be worth it as a starter or second lathe. If the spindle Is a weird size that you can’t find adapters for I would not buy it |
