I am slowly cleaning up and refurbishing this lathe. It does not have the original motor on it so I am wondering how to find out the diameter of the motor sheave. It, of course, determines the speed of the variable speed changing system. The R/D parts list doesn't call out the size of that sheave it only gives you the R/D part number.

Anyone know what the OD of an original sheave on a 46-450 lathe should be?

The motor pulley is 3" dia. The bottom belt is an A35 and the top one is an A62.
