Hello Again!
i have a customer in a panic
their Mettler Toledo 90* conveyor needed a pulley, so i decided to make one from scratch.
mainly because MT is in Ohio and also because right now is not fast enough for this fickle customer!
i first used my Shenwai SW900B lathe
to turn down a 2.250" pulley blank from some 3"- 6061 aluminum rod that i had in stock.
i drilled the center hole out to 3/4", then bored the pulley out to .873" and created a .080"step for bearing retention.
i ground a 3/8"...
