Mini-lathe speed reducer

[DuncParticipant @dunc]

I was browsing some online machining forums and noted that ME/MEW might have a few thoughts on replacing the motor drive pulley on the original (350 watt, hi-lo speed motor) mini-lathe with the primary intention of increasing torque. No mention was made of which publication.

Would anyone have a reference to a suitable, construction-based article (s)?

Thank you.

There is an article by Neil here, another one here.

Thanks very much. I am tending towards the second (countershaft) version.
