I drill almost 100% of my blanks using the lathe and a jaw chuck. My Delta midi had the most pathetic handwheel, I think it's a 3" diameter.
I am thinking of replacing it with an 8" wheel. Anyone else do anything like that? Was it worth it?

Does anyone know of a way to modify the ram so that it travels like the quill on a drill press rather than a hand crank (ie, a lever-action instead of a wheel and screw)?
