In case anyone else is looking for them the pulley outer diameters are as follows (all measurements in mm). These are the same for both the MK1 and MK2 M4. The diameters were carefully chosen by Meddings to keep the belt length consistent between ratios so you don't have to keep adjusting the...

Thanks for those measurements, if you get a chance could I trouble you to also measure the diameter of the other 4 pulleys on that stack? Or if easier the difference in diameter from one pulley to the next by just measuring the size of the lip if you see what I mean? Thanks again Good to hear...

I'd agree with the bin it. I've had a bad catch on a Hamlet HSS spindle gouge, it snapped the handle and bent the gouge. Snapping metal sounds like something 'bad' happened.

Don't turn tired...... I started spindle turning a large piece (about 30" x 8"), it was vibrating too much for comfort so I moved the belt to the slowest pulley and tried again.... Unfortunately it turned out to be the fastest pulley... Doh! .... It flattened the fluorescent light showering me...
