Default Pulley Diameters Dumore Model 44 Grinder

Hi All; Just purchased the above on EBay, it was complete except for the
number 1 and 2 pulleys. Fortunately these are the two smallest diameter
ones, I am hoping balance on these smaller units will not be a big problem.
What I need is the O.D. dimensions for these, any help will be much
appreciated.

Jack

A toolpost grinder is a *high speed precision* tool.
Any out of balance condition, however small, will show up big time.
The reason why Dumore parts are so damned expensive is a seriously
retentive approach to quality control.
You will only *ever* be buying one of each so I think the proper thing to do
is bite the bullet and go OEM.
Just my opinion.
Ken.

you need a good machined pully and then balance the whole thing on the
shaft. Find someone with an IRD balancing unit that knows what hes
doing and drill a couple of holed in it to balance it out. He will tell
you where G
