    Spindle Speed in Dead Zone

    Hi, I have an Acer 3VS mill with a digital head. I'm new to milling and have been using FSWizard for calculating speeds and feeds. My mill runs 0-450 rpm in low range and is advertised at 0-4500 in high. My problem is that some of my face mills call for using 600-650 rpm and at that speed...

    Help getting Powermatic 87 back in service

    Hi Guys, I posted this in the metalworking forum and someone suggested that I might get more help here. I’m hoping you can help me out with a 1967 Powermatic 87 band saw. It seemed to be in good shape when I bought it, I should have looked harder. The most interesting issue is the lower wheel...
