A newbie question...
On the Jet JML 1014I, what position to you place the belt for turning? Does it vary depending on what material you are spinning?
Thanks
Their are no set rules on speed. that is why lathes have speeds instead of a just off and on switch.
That being said ,since you ask a newbie question, here is my answer.
Did you learn to drive full speed foot on the floor or did you mash the brakes to the floor everytime you stopped. It is not a race. learn, then speed if you think you need it.
I wish someone had told me in the second grade when me and a buddy raced as fast as we could througth our ABCs.With my writing I should have been a brain doctor. Do you know your ABCs of turning Ancher,Bevel,Cut
