I think that you did miss it. I can be too brief in my posts, so it was
probably easily missed: I took the torque measurement during a heavy cut,
the heaviest that I would expect to make (.050" DOC & .050 advance, IIRC -
it's not a heavy lathe).

for what it's worth, the manual for my logan PL92 lathe says that the clutch
slips at 900 pounds force
