Had a buddy install one on his wood lathe. Said it didn't have much torque, especially with a large chunk of wood on it. No experience with a metal lathe and DM.

Thanks for your response.

Did your buddy say if it was short on torque,

in low speeds, mid speeds, or high speeds :?:

It came up short during start up, Ken. Then if he took heavy cuts, it would stall out.
