woodonglass Report post Posted March 13, 2018 I did 3 things to slow ny old clutch motor 1. Installed a 1 1/2” pulley on motor 2. Lengthened the engagement bar by 12” 3. Made a New 6” Hand pulley for the machine from hard maple This increases the gear ratio and maximum speed is now 1/2 of what it was If you have a lathe this is very easy to do I’ve made several for friends and they all love em’ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
