Hi,
I am rebuilding a Tool Kraft 6x48 Belt Sander.
Was wondering is buying cast iron pullys for sander and motor is worth doing???
I can see where CI Pulleys would be worth it for say a Table Saw...
But what about a Sander???
Also the only motor I have is a good old 60's Craftsman 1/2 HP motor.
Would that work?
Motors seem to be pretty expensive these days and I'm not a full time Woodworker, just small projects!
