I run my steel router with really tiny timing belts (~3:1 factor) and I think it is a T5. They can take uge loads even at at small sizes. If you go bananas and want to make the hobs yourself a T10 is easier to make as you can use larger cutters. Otherwise I'm with Andy, availability is a strong keyword. /S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
