Let's See Your Lathe

[Arbalest]

John, the very first thing I made on the Lathe was a smaller pulley to slow the speed down! I knew the second job was my first attempt at screw cutting and I felt the minimum speed was too high. If you look at the picture again, the small black chart on the headstock is the original speed chart. Below it is a white chart with my slower speed range. The slowest speed is now 100 rpm rather than 170.
