While that is true, my thinking is that if i gear it up so that 1700
RPM -> 2000 spindle RPM then I lose mre torque at low speeds through
the
gearring. On the o

Now I am ready to figure out what to do for the spindle drive.

More obviously, run the motor at its rated speed, change one of the pulleys
to give you your desired spindle speed.

Now I am ready to figure out what to do for the spindle drive.
The project is a 1972 Clausig NC lathe. The original paper tape fed
controls are long gone. I actually have the owners manual. The original
lathe had a 5 HP motor and a variable speed transmission similar to
bridgeport heads and many m
