Hi..
Just for the fun of it, I have an old wood lathe that I would like to get up and running.
Only problem I have is that the 3/4" spindle runs in cast iron with provision for greasing.
It is fitted with a 3 step vee pulley, which would give it about 1040 rpm's on the slowest speed.
This sounds way too fast to me... your thoughts.
