Chisel and Punches keep breaking in half.
gerald replied to John Martin's topic in Slitters, Punches, Drifts, etc

Cheap Belt Grinder Idler Pulleys
gerald replied to Hunterbow Smithy's topic in Grinders, Sanders, etc
I used a pair of 1" wide bearings scrounged from an electric motor re-build shop. I ganged two of them side by side to give me a 2" wide idler. See pics at BluePrint 354. -
