My cheap ass hardware store aluminum pulley bit the biscuit tonight. I’m going to pick up steal one tomorrow, wondering what the optimal size pulley should be on my old Beaver 3200. I’m running thin kerf blades for most things, however I’ve just picked up a Dimar combination blade that I don’t want to wreck. It says nothing on the blade in terms of recommended speed. The old manual says a 5 5/8 diameter pulley well bring this saw up to 4500 RPM. I plan on using the good blade for cutting hardwood and try finer work. I have a bunch of walnut I’d like to start messing with.
thanks in advance
