Title: Pulleys and toothed belts etc
Post by: Sabre on September 25, 2026, 01:19:57 AM
After a bit of a recess I've dragged out my Waverley and I am a bit puzzled about which size of pulley and belt to link motor to drive shaft.   My intention is to fit a 4mm shaft across hull with one link via belt to an MFA919d which has a shaft size of 6mm.  Paddle wheels will be either made from copper or plastic sheet.

Any info on pulley sizes much appreciated.
