Hubert,
I adopted the manual braking because of the many small items I make for
Dixie Gun Works in Union City. Usually short run items in diameters of less
than 3/8" and in 12L14 steel or brass. At the speeds I run the lathe, it
takes too long for it to stop for reloading, so I help it out. Also helps
me to locate that single chuck key hole quickly.
Jesse in no longer foggy, but hot and humid West Tennessee
