Cutting Gears Robert Silas
Cutting gears on a lathe: A few years back I bought a Drill/Mill from Harbor Freight Tools. ... The mill has a 7/8 HP DC variable RPM motor which drives directly, no vbelts to change, very convenient to work with. Major drawback is the vertical feed which you have to learn to work with; it''s far from steady; you have to know your machine.
