Thanks for the explanation. So what you are saying is the the two gears can be "swapped" - Drive to lead and lead to drive?  Thanks.  Don't bother further researching the Mill or its set-up for me.  I don't have one nor do I intend to get one.Did you get a chance to view the video?Mac-Original

The gear that would go on the main drive gear is swapped with the gear on the leadscrew. So instead of the lead screw turning 8 times and the spindle turning once, the spindle would turn 8 times and the leadscrew once. There was a gear kit sold as the lathe attachment that had a lead of .039"

You are seeing correctly. They where 1/4" thick gears made from cast acrylic. A direction gear was not an option. I have made plastic gears for my model 200 and I will say they are quite to operate. So far none of them have failed, but they have not seen much action. The bonus of the plasti

Am I seeing it right?  Appears that the gears are "plastic". (I know someone will provide the "correct" term here.  One has had the protective paper remover - show it to be red.)What do Group Members have to say about that?Mac-Original Message- From: Begat Sent: Jul 13, 2014 12:12 PM To: l

Apparently they are recalling it because of electric shock potential, if my experience of Porter Cable is anything to go on that does not surprise me because their QC is abysmal. A few years back I purchased a PC7518 which when I switched it on it would not work and could never work and could n
