I had a reply almost finished when my browser shut down. Arrgh!
The drawers are in place. I got the wiring run after work today. Mapped the six spindle speeds - 55 to 505 RPM. Later, I got curious and checked. There is a second set of pulleys from the motor to the gearbox. I'll map the other six tomorrow.
I was running through all the settings on the QCGB when the output shafts stopped turning, even though the final gear was still turning. I found that the woodruff key was missing. I'll buy or make one on the weekend.
Let the playing begin! If I can find 10 tpi on the QCGB, I'll make a new handle for the back gears. The original obviously got broken or lost. It was replaced with a length of 3/4" x 10 threaded rod. Have to make a thread dial at some point, too.
