I have a Craftsman/Atlas 12x36
model number 101.07403
101.20140 QC gearbox number
what is the max RMP I can achieve and what combination of pulley/gears would I need to achieve this. I will be doing some pool cue repair and eventually some cue building. Wouldn't you want higher speeds for wood?
I also posed a question earlier about some play in the cross slide. If I apply pressure with my hand on the slide is has a little play perpindicular to the bed. Is there a way to tighten this? what would I need to replace(in most cases) to fix the problem?
Finally, when I run the carriage out manually, it starts to get difficult about 3/5ths of the way down the bed. it doesn't bind exactly, just gets tough and you have to muscle through it. Someone suggested it was "wear" and could be adjusted, I just don't have a clue how to start.
Any help is MUCH appreciated
