Re: Heavy 10 gearbox
Bill, Those gears that mesh with the tumbler gears are not keyed to the shaft. They are part of a progressive reduction as they go from the input end of the gearbox to the center. That tumbler selects

Adapted a 9¡± steady rest for my 10L
Like others before me, I found it difficult to find a steady rest for my Heavy 10. I found this nicely made one for a 9¡± SB that has a 5¡± bore size. With 5¡± to work with and being made out of

Re: Depth of cuts
Link belts used to be, and I assume still are, very stretchy indeed, when compared with a modern cut edge (and maybe notched) V belt, which have negligible stretch, and indeed, shrink in length if

Re: Depth of cuts
Hows your spindle bearings ? Have you done the test by using a rod through the spindle hole & lifting the rod to see what your clearances are ? Whats your finished product look like ? Like everyone

Re: Depth of cuts
.050 should be obtainable on a SB9. If the belt is slipping, you should try to increase the tension first. Link belts are usually not a problem. Disconnect the belts and confirm that the spindle

Re: Depth of cuts
Do you have the setup with the V belt pulley on the motor and a large flat pulley on the countershaft? Looks strange but this was standard. I'm a great fan of the link belts for V-belt pulleys. I've

Re: Depth of cuts
Can you share some photos of your belt setup? In particular, the area with the bearing that's throwing oil. I had similar problems with belt slipping, and just had to tighten it up; but I haven't had

Re: Depth of cuts
Wow. Lots of questions. One fact is really obvious. My machine operator pair should take cuts 10x deeper than I am. The lathe head and all associated gearing is good. It was recently rebuilt and all

Re: Depth of cuts
If the spindle is slowing or stopping either: 1. the motor is not powerful enough (1/4 should do better, 1/2 is plenty)? 2. the belt is slipping on a pulley or? 3. a pulley is slipping on a shaft(

Re: Depth of cuts
What sort of carbide are you using? I've never had good luck with the 0 degree rake brazed carbide. I hear that it wants to run really fast.

0.002¡± is way too low. I run 0.015¡±-0.020¡± at a minimum for the hardest materials. Material? Speeds? What size is your motor? Brandon

Re: Depth of cuts
I regularly take .050 on my 9A Two variables to look at - feeds and speeds. Try feeding slower. Make sure your RPM is right for the diameter - your SFPM (surface feet per minute). This can make a
