Ken, Some of my belt driven machinery, actual has something like an idler wheel on them. It allows some control of the belt. If you have seen some of the table top belt sanders I think they are 4 x 26

Hi, I have a Clarke CL300M 7x12, which I have been using like the old 16x84 that I previously had and the strain is telling! I have replaced the line fuse with a proper strong one that is much easier

Sean, Make up a few and show people what you can do. That's the best sales tool. You can use the stock removal method and only have to cut metal away. Then find somebody to heat treat and temper them

Sean, Damascus steel, is bars of steel are forged together, much folding of the metal goes on during the process. You must flux with something that contains borax, or you can use the stuff at from
