Default seneca falls star lathe update, redrive

You did spend some time on that, you even put down white sheets for the
pics. I need you here for a few weeks to take of some projects.

careful with your fingers on that one, don't let a cat in the room while
running.

FINALLY got the redrive "done". i felt quite proud of it (though it
took an embarrassingly long time to do). still have to do the electrical
wiring to the motor (drum switch, 220 volt, etc.) "fired it up" today.
thank GOD it worked ok first time!
my crazy project. there's no way this lathe could be worth the time,
energy, money i've put into it so far. still haven't cut anything with it
yet.
thanks to those who've offered advice/assistance.

b.w.
