How do most lathe manufacturers and or individuals work with minimizing motor vibrations ?
I have to adjust the motor so that the
belt is pretty loose ..
What I did was watch and feel the vibrations
as I adjusted the motor and minimized the
vibration ..
What does everyone one else do ?
I was also told by Smithy there was a
V-belt that has links in it .. but I forgot what they said it was called ..
Not sure where to get one either ..
any ideas ?
Oh .. and are all gearhead lathes noisy
in the gear box ?? Maybe its how the lathe
says " Made in China" LOL
