I'm waiting on one needle bearing to be able to complete the one-way clutch for the low speed system. The upper 12 speeds work great. The "California" eBay address for the bearing turned out to be quite a bit west- - - -like China!

I build custom rifles, flintlock and centerfire types, so the press will see a lot of sight dovetail milling jobs, etc. I've also got two variable-speed Bridgeport mills in storage, waiting for a few final touches to get done on the shop before I put them into operation.
