This reminds me. My Holbrook has a Poly-V belt. It's probably bigger than you are considering, despite only being a 9x20 lathe: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/JsV7Nr5e3hKpspS7eWj5R9MTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink But indicates that at least one manufacturer thought it was a good plan. That belt is _after_ the 2-speed reduction box. There are no gears in the head. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
