Hard a hard time getting motor on the 109,finally got it. Tried a small cut,loved the lathe. I`ll start some serious playing in a few weeks. Gonna start my winter schedule by then.For the life of me,I can`t find any step down pulleys here locally that I need. Gonna try Grainger or someplace like that.I gonna make me some cutoff tools when I got time,A live center and so forth. Possible a center rest,I need a center rest for my first job.

Aw well,what fun we have,I luv it. Have a great rest of the week,Everett

How about a motorcycle in an ice storm?  Been there, done that.

Have you tried ebay for the step down pulleys?   If not there, you do have a lathe...

Hi,vinny,I rode one to work for 2 and 1/2 years. Only missed one day because I had a flat.

I tried ebay,waste of time. I`ll probable wait . Most things come around to me if I wait long enough
I most know theyre still available if I get out of the rural area. LOL.

Have a good rest of the week,everett
