My lathe stopped working!

Looks like the paddle switch in the diagram. Which has a switch disabling key.
Those old brush leads sure look like they got hot. Sometimes new brushes don't seat well.
May want to revisit the brushes. Especially if the commutator got heated up too much.

I'll take the brushes out again and give it another shot.

I just ordered a new circuit board, should get it next week. Let's see if that fixes the problem.

Do these have start capacitors? Is it making huming noises or anything? Hopefully it's something simple.

Makes no noise, doesn't even try to move lol.

Will somebody in Tulsa that knows how to use a meter go help this guy?

This is what my machine looks like.

That looks nothing like my machine. Mine has only a knob where the fuse is housed in.

You said this is what my machine looks like then you say this does not look like your machine.

Norman, Correlate!

It is, but it does not have the little button at the bottom of the switch.

That's hilarious!

Looking at the brushes you may have too much carbon build up on the armature where they can't make good contact. If it's still under warranty I'd call Grizzly. If not ,if you can get the motor apart and clean the armature.

most likely cheapo circuit board

Just replaced the circuit board, it turned on. But it doesn't turn at the lowest speed, unless it's at 1000, but then the speed goes in and out.

I'm gonna call Grizzly and unfortunately it's not under warranty. Thanks
