    Schatz W3 Chime Alignment

    Switching from footpedal to rheostat for speed control

    Cazboy - Check out a router speed controller at Harbor Freight or possibly even Sears. It's the same as the one pictured. I use one on my Taig lathe. It works fairly well, but the motor can stall at low speeds. BarryB

    214, 218 Accutron Circuit Schematic

    Samantha - Can you supply me with schematics for the 214 and 218 circuits? It used to be on the Accutron Watch Page, but I am getting a cyber-attack warning for that page. Seems to me I should be able to put a scope on the circuit to see what is wrong (see my previous email about coils vs...
