    Tom,
    In order to get the different speeds I use an idler pulley between the motor and lathe. This works on the same principal as compound gears on the watch gear train. You can find them on Ebay or other sources and they usually run around $100.00.

    I’ll search for one. It’ll be on my list behind that Mill/Drill and the Ace timer. ;)

    Thanks!
