This is the motor I will be using, a 1200W unit from a ALDI Gardenline water pump. Last time I made my our wooden pulley which never ran as true as I would have liked so this time I bought a $20 pulley from Conon Motors in Glen Waverley.
I would love to buy one of their motors as well but a 1.5HP 4 pole is around $200 dollars.
Back to cut discs 3 & 4 which will make the second wheel
That was put out for hard waste collection in the Rowville area somehow found it’s way into the back of my KIA Pregio van and into the Meadowbrook Mansion workshop 
Perfect for the just completed 8” bandsaw.
Just finished the 8” bandsaw and decided to build another 14″ bandsaw to replace the one lost in the shed fire that took around 7 months to build. I will be using the 8″ bandsaw (see previous posts) to build this one. To get started went looking for and found enough Melamine particleboard (16mm) to cut 4 x 14″ discs which will make 2 wheels each 32mm wide – more on this later.
We need to cut 4 of these on the mini band saw so start by trimming them on the table saw.
