Hi all, I would like to purchase a variable speed gear motor for a 1-cue spray booth. Where can I find the most affordable one? Thanks.

No reason. I just have the switch and I would like to use it. Thanks dchristal for the instructions and cueman for the verification. I will try to do the connections tonight.

Thanks. So the last 3 contacts will be empty? Is my diagram below correct?

Here's my current setup. The motor came pre-wired with only an On-off switch. I've attached pictures so you guys can clearly see the current wiring and what I would like to do. On the motor, I have "yellow" connected to "4" and "blue" connected to "1". It also has a "blue wire" that connects to...

The switch came with a 3 page manual with several different diagrams but the closest I can find to my setup is attached. So from what you are saying, row 2 would be line 1 and row 3 will be line 2, correct? So what's row 1 used for? This diagram is also using 1, 2 and 4 on the motor besides the...

Thanks WilleeCue. I'll take a pic of the switch tonight but here's the specs of it: http://www.carlingtech.com/pdf/s_h.pdf Basically, it has 9 contacts at the bottom instead of 6. I also have a couple of on-off-on switches I got from Radio shack with 6 contacts. Will these work?

I got a Marathon Motor 115v 60 HZ 1725 RPM 1/4 HP reversible motor http://www.peck-polymers.com/store/Category.asp?Cguid={20F3B1BA-14CD-4256-8B34-084126FEF6B3}&Category=Taig%3AAccessory+Lathe The wiring diagram on the motor shows: CW Yellow - 1 = Line 1 Blue - 4 = Line 2 CCW Blue - 1...

Thanks all for the advice. I'll post a before and after (if I manage to do it right). :)

pm sent. Thanks.

Does anybody know if Chris is out of town or something? I emailed him last saturday and he has not responded yet... just wondering. Thanks.

Can this motor run continuously for long periods or is it just suitable for doing wraps?

The cue is a cheap no-name brand cue with a black wrap. The owner wants me to fix a loose strand in the middle of the cue but he wants me to re-use the wrap. I have a cuesmith deluxe lathe but I have not done any wrap work yet so I did not know if a wrap can be re-used or not. by the way, I...

Very good points Mr. Arnot. I am a "newbie" cuemaker compared to most cuemakers here and I have learned a lot of techniques from the information shared by experienced makers here at the "Ask the Cuemaker" forum. You have good points about how this forum for cuemakers should work and if AZB...

Thanks... that's what I thought but I guess the hard part is finding the end of the wrap. There is a loose part in the middle of the wrap area and that is why I am taking it off and putting it back in. It is just a cheap cue so I figure I might as well learn how to do it.

I've search the forums but could not find any discussions about this - If I want to re-use the linen wrap, how can I remove it without cutting anything off? I've got a couple of test cues that I can experiment on but I would like to get the experts opinions so I can try to avoid any of the...

Thank you Poulos Cues and Chris for the advice. :cool:

I tried doing this yesterday but I cannot get that dial to 0 runout. Everytime I adjust the center on the tailstock, I get runout on another side... it's frustrating! Is there a good technique to make this easier?

To be honest, it is very difficult to determine what side to believe. This rebuttal from the BSCP makes sense to me but on the other hand, the facts that BMPAP had posted before also made sense. The only thing that is clear to me is EITHER one group is lying or both groups are lying. They cannot...

I agree and Mr. Murrell did explain this to me also. We talked for almost an hour and there was a lot of small details that Kenny mentioned and I am just starting to digest now the more I think about it. Like Mr. Wadsworth said, there is too much information to post and I do not want to post it...

Thank you Sheldon and thank you Mr. Wadsworth. I would have called you but I got the PM from Mr. Murrell to call him before I saw your post. I did not want you to think that I snubbed your offer, sir. :) Anyway, I'd like to thank Mr. Kenneth Murrell for all the advice. Lots of good people here...
