Handy Pulley Calculator
« on: July 13, 2015 - 09:26:31 PM »

I've been experimenting with pulley ratio's to try and help a heating issue and found this handy pulley calculator.
I have a 7" crank pulley, and 2 different water pump pulleys. 6 1/4 "and 5 13/16" I used a 6 .75" center

Thank You! I have a use for that..   I've added a few jack shafts to my Jet band saw so I can slow down the blade for limited metal work.... The frame is pretty heavy so for what I want I think it'll be fine & by moving belts around & changing the blade I will be able to cut metal or wood....

Very cool. Wish I had that last year when I was sorting through a pile of pulleys for my 360. I had to do it the old fashioned way with math and all.
