Re: Speed changer rpms
Darren, thank you so much!! I've copied them both. I'll take the one I think is most visually appealing to my eyes down to Staples and have them laminate it. Then I'll put it up on the shop wall. Doesn't get any better than this...lol. Just got an order in from Skip that will complete(for me) my SS. Lots of projects planned, both work and pleasure.

Re: Speed changer rpms
Me too and thanks again! Still trying to decide which version to have laminated.
Got my speed changer set up today. Very pleased; the belts run cool, with no weird noise/vibrations. I broke the top sheave trying to get it off the headstock drive sleeve. But ironically,to use the HIGH speed setup, I only needed the smallest part of the sheave. That was the only part unmolested. Skip has got machined sheaves, so I can replace it. Pretty flimsy alloy of that sheave which I assume is original. In hindsight....if I had stood the machine up for drilling put penetrating oil around the headstock drive sleeve, and left it for a day....I might not have trashed it so badly.

Re: Speed changer rpms
Here is a version I've mostly cleaned up, but it isn't perfect.
Thanks much,
