I don't press hard enough on finishing cuts to slow the 3/4 on mine.
Suppose if you pressed, might slow down, but my carving tools leave a
burnished surface cutting wood at hand speed.

My theory is that if you have higher horsepower, you will have more
consistent cuts especially on large, thin bowls due to consistent rpms. A
weak motor will allow speed to drop and due to the flexibility of the
bowl,
the cut will be inconsistent.

Anyone ever noticed this?

Thoughts?
