What is "Essential"? Are rotation speeds the same?

Strangely, I've noticed no difference in transfer speeds between them. To me that means that the smaller buffer isn't the weakest link in the transfer. They also removed the blue circular status light from the front of the drive and now it lights up by the USB port. Both 5200 RPM as far as I know. I think the Elite has the slightly faster drives and more buffer size.

No, both direction rotates freely about same. You need to push button to move the dial for settings.

They can be replaced with standard, but you won't need to change very often unless you plan on turning 8 - 10hrs a day 7 days a week. Just kidding. I'm still useing the originals after about 7mo. and all you need to do when dull is rotate to a new edge. Big Guy Productions (Captain Eddie) on UTube has replacements for about half price of Harrison. Hope that helps and good turning. It's addictive!

You should be fine. The system requirements for Essentials 1.5 from Propellerhead's website are:-Windows XP SP3, Vista or Windows 7 (these two are required for 64-bit)-3GB of free hard disk space-2 GB RAM-Intel Pentium 4 / AMD Opteron or better (multiple cores highly recommended)Upgrading to Essentials 2.0 or Reason 7, however, will give you problems since you won't be able to use it on XP. Have fun and make good music. :)

Yes, just find the same arbor sized accessory wheel at 6" diameter and you're set. Keep in mind it's not variable speed so you're stuck at 1 speed...albeat a awesome-fast/smooth speed.

Of course it depends on frequency and velocity of rotation. Consistent reverse rotation is best, I have noticed that after just a short time of non-rotation the effects are nullified. Good luck.

Yes it is. I have the Orion dual axis drive unit on mine...although I should mention that I bought mine several years ago, and they might have changed it. I'd go look on Orion's webpage to make sure. BTW, dual axis is really not needed, I probably should have stuck with a single axis motor.

Yes, if you are asking about the base rotation right and left. The right/left rotation is not smooth because the internal parts have teeth. That is you must loosen both locks and lift the vise to rotate. This is more work to rotate the vise, but you do not have to hit the lock bars with hammer to be sure it stays in place while working.

No, the speed varies by use of the trigger, but it has no actual torque settings, so I would not rely on that instead of a torque wrench. When items need to be torqued they must be precise and I would not trust anything but a torque wrench for that. Otherwise, this is a great tool and a real time saver.

There are no steps, it is a smooth dial. In general, I would say that it is fairly course/ruff, maybe a dozen steps per 360º. However, within the software you can adjust the "strength" or amount of responsiveness of the twisting motion, just like adjusting your mouse's strength in system preferences.

You should probably contact the company to be absolutely sure, but it looks exactly the same as the Spin Disc that we have. It seems to have the same weight restrictions, etc., same functions, and it looks the same.

I bought this item several months ago. It doesn't come with adapter, it's battery operated. The speed is a steady rotation which is perfect for viewing a piece of art or crystal. It has the option for just light only and no rotation as well. I love mine, great quality.

Yes, that's what we needed and it works great! Seems to be good quality. Slight, short duration motion getting in or rolling over (our first waveless), better than i expected. Good luck!

I believe that info is a typo, it does not have rpm's, it's a Solid State Disk, the speed is very good, as long as what you are running is ARM compatabile. the ubuntu distro that comes with it is acceptable when run in Gnome Fallback, less so in Unity. Android runs great, but is a pain the ass to Root.

There are a few I have seen, but the most common (and what I use) is the Thumler Tumbler Model B. I've seen people mention there are 2 models of it, so be sure to get the higher speed model which uses a motor that rotates at 3000rpm

The difference between ⅙" and ⅛" is .042" which is very insignificant. I doubt that,if rolling without the guides, one would reach that degree of accuracy.

Yes. Spins both ways and very good quality, much better than what you find in stores. I see that it is currently priced at $29. I have seen the price jumping betn $12-15 to $30 every few weeks. You may want to wait for a bargain hunt :-)
