A Few Questions:
I recently made a v-belt pulley but with some difficulty because I had trouble setting up a 20 degree angle on the inside surface closest the lathe head. I suppose I could turn the pulley around but then it might not run true.
Anyway, seems like I should be able buy an off-the-shelf tool bit with a snubbed 40 degree included angle. Just plunge a certain depth and I'm done. Is there such an animal?
Second, I could go for a smaller belt but can't seem to find anything smaller than 2L. Where should I look? And if I can't go smaller, how come?
Third, I once got machine shop info from some other usenet group alt. rec.something. What was it?
