Metalworking Lathe question by anonymous: Problem with lathe speed control device?
I have a small 7×12 mini metalworking lathe with a variable speed motor. I found out that the speed control device inside needs to be replaced. I already tried to replace some of the components inside but that did not do anything.

The speed control device has a number on the back that reads: SEIG-FC250JSMD. The best price for this speed controller is about and I don’t want to buy another one when the original one died so easily.

Is it possible that I can get a heavy duty one that is compatible with the same machine?
The instructions for the lathe do not say what the motor specifications are. The speed control device only has a label that says 110 volts.

About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich Products
Opened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you’ll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.

Metalworking Lathe question by cwbmare: For metalworking lathes, why would you use a half center in the tailstock?

Why would a half dead center be used apposed to a full dead center, when using a center is neccessary for long work pieces.

Metalworking Lathe best answer:

Answer by mikey
You use a half centre in te tailstock to be able to machine radially down to the shaft centre or piece of work in the lathe

Metalworking Lathe question by anonymous: Metalworking lathe does not work?
I have a Cummins 7×12 mini metal lathe. It is a great machine but the motor speed controller has died. The motor on the lathe only runs at full speed or sometimes won’t run at all. The motor will run normal for a while but then it will die without blowing the fuse. I replaced the rheostat and both MOSFET transistors already and nothing has changed. I don’t want to try to replace anything on the speed control anymore because of how easy the machine broke when the problems started happening. I was machining aluminum stock with a sharp cutter when the cutter took to deep of a cut and got stuck around the workpiece. The motor instantly shut down and I figured all that had happened was that the fuse had failed. I replaced the 4amp fuse with a new one and it seemed alright for a while. Then a few minutes later, the machine was going full speed and blew another fuse.
Now, I want to replace the entire speed control but not spend 0. Can I possibly modify a wood router speed control?

Metalworking Lathe best answer:

Answer by Craigory
Well, as you know, wood routers run MUCH faster than metal lathes.

Now that doesn’t exclude your being able to use the controller from the router, but it doesn’t mean it’s a slam dunk, either.

We simply do not have enough information to difinitively say whether you can use your router controller for your lathe – we would need more information about each of the motors in question.
