Interesting. But, set it up so the cutterhead is running in the range of 3650-5000 SFM and it'll be fine. -- |

I misread (it's _awfully_ fine print! is my story and I'm stickin' to it!  ) the diameter as 3+" instead of 2-5/8". At 4200 rpm, that is a little under 3000 sfpm which is a little low, granted. But, that's a pretty small machine; from the original picture had thought it quite a bit larger so I'm guessing feeder speed is pretty slow which will counteract the problem. Also, bearings probably not the _most_ robust, altho of that vintage things were just typically quite a lot more robust so that's likely not a real concern. Might push it a little beyond that target; I'd not want to get carried away, though... -- |
