  I have just been in my shop running my turbine with some success.  It has so little torque that it would power only about half of my little machines . It has done better before, but I think I have too much total belt tension . I has two tight drive belts to contend with , and I am just too lazy to make new longer ones. It is a cool little engine and is interesting to watch it do what it can.
