Hi Marc, welcome to the forum. I am a retired automotive mechanic also. I spend a lot of my time restoring old motorcycles. After you make a few more posts here you will be able to post some picture of your projects.

Hi Marc. Just before a retired a few years ago I travelled a bunch of times to Gatineau to attend CRTC meetings on the riverbank. We got to explore your town quite a bit. Really nice place. Learned the hard way you're NOT supposed to take a Ottawa cab from there back across the river though. The cabbies get really mad. Lesson learned.

Welcome aboard from Calgary.

Salut Marc, je parle un peu français - je t'aiderai si possible!

I use the 30W non-Detergent oil. lightly apply as the machine is running so it is not flung all over

The belt for the 10 inch:

The 12 inch lathe(yours) the belt should be longer - I think a B36 (5L360). I will check.
See in my first picture how the belt rides in the upper pulley. This is to make easier switch to Lower pulley.
