Having a very confusing problem with this lathe. I was turning a 2 inch spindle, starting on the finishing pass. It just slowed down, and started making a sound like it was binding up. It was running about 1200 rpm, then just slowed down. I took the piece off, turned the chuck by hand. There doesn't seem to be anything restricting it from turning. I turn it back on, it runs, but starts to catch someplace. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I have never turned anything large, or heavy on it. In operation about 5 years.
