Default slowing my drill press

In article , Dale says...

I want to pass along a tip my wife's 80 year old uncle showed me in his
work shop. It was simply an old wash machine motor mounted vertically on
drill press so that pulley on motor lined up with 4 speed pulley on
drill press motor. The regular motor is not turned on but is turned by
aux. motor. giving quite a speed reduction.


If I get this, it sounds like the regular motor is being used
as a jackshaft for speed reduction. Cute idea!
