Re: Is 1/2 HP really enough?
This only works if you sharpen your cutting tools according to the book using HSS.? That depth of cut is viable but the spindle RPM's are very slow and possibly the back gear is used.

Re: Is 1/2 HP really enough?
Cuts like that are for roughing materials for production work. If you're doing production work it's good to have that capability. Maybe even if you're not doing production work, if your shop time is

Re: Is 1/2 HP really enough?
Nice looking 10K!
Mine came with a brand new 1 HP motor (it had been 3 phase) and it really struggles to make a 20 thou cut too. But the problem is in the flat belt, not the power of the motor. When

Re: Is 1/2 HP really enough?
1/2 HP should be well enough power to run your lathe.? My 9" SBL originally had a 1/4 HP motor on it.? It finally died and replaced with a 1/2 HP DC PM motor.

Rubber and plastic wheels have a tendency to get flat if not rolled around very often. Some are better than others but they are all probably over rated weight wise. I like to go bigger as they roll
