Gear reduction motor

admin

I believe I need one of these to convert my bandsaw to a slower metal cutting speed.  When I was avidly home brewing, I recall surplus units selling for under $100.  I can't recall where that was.  Surplus center and grainier don't list anything I need.  I'm looking for a 1/3 hp motor with a 20:1 reduction. MAny help would be appreciated.  ThanksTA Arcmaster 300CM3XMT 304S22P12 suitcase feederX-Treme 12VSOptima pulserTA161SMaxstar 150STLHypertherm PM45OP setupStihl 020AVP, 039, 066 Magnum
Reply:Everyone will tell you to get a jackshaft and a bigger pulley. You have to do measuring and such. I haven't a clue on how to do it, because I wanted to do it to mine but I gave up.Torchmate 2x2 CNC with Flashcut CNC controlsHypertherm Powermax45 Esab ET220i Razorweld 195 MigRazorweld 200ac/dc TigTormach 770, Tormach xstechRazorweld, Vipercut/Vipermig, SSC Foot Pedal Dealer
