Just as planned, I've just finished the subject.
- 2 pillow blocks from surplus center
- some HRS (hot rolled steel): 3/8x8x8 or so (junk box)
- 3/4 shaft (leadloy from junk box)
- $5 ~4" OD zinc cast V-pulley from McMaster
I designed it to use 1/2-wide flat belt - as I didn't want to grove
the driving wheel for V-belt. I turned down the zinc pulley to where
I had slightly crowned 1/2-wide flat pulley with a small lip (flange)
on one side.
The smallish plate has the pillow blocks mounted and in turn, I mount
it atop of the tool arm, which is 1.5x1.5 HRS bar. Putting the attachement
on/off is a 1/4 turn of 3/8 SHCS.
Onto the shaft , I can mount my 9" and 12" disks.
Pics are long overdue
