wanted please

I,am looking for a 400mm/16" twin 17mm vee pully with a 38mm/1.5" shaft hole as i,am trying to knock together a log screw/splitter its almost there but the gearing needs a 16" ish pully as i,ve only got a 4.5hp engine and the 8" pully thats fitted is to fast and stalls the engine so any big old cast pully off a donky engine with a shaft size of 38mm or inch n half and 16 inch or more the better i know its a big ask but would be very greatful and willing to pay or donate etc

Machine mart do a range of pulleys, its near the engines in their catalogue.

thanks i will have a root on there site now cheers for the info. As for fenner i,ve managed to get my hands on a fenner12" 2 vee pully but its cracked in 2 places where the taperlock once fitted so its rendered scrap but could really do with a 16" 2 VEE PULLY say off a old compressor with a 38mm 1.5" bore bigger the better in thinking it will store more kinetic energy for the screw to work better thats thinking anyway and can adapt almost any size of engine as the gearing will be nice n slow as at the moment its gearing is for a electric motor 1200 ish rpm and the 4.5hp diesel engine it got fitted runs at 3000 rpm so want to slow it down but give it more torque sorry i,am rambling on

[david wood]

sounds like a fun lil project, be good to see pics once up and running. wish i had skills to build something that works........now taking stuff apart

[Breezeblock]

when i built ours i ended up making a flywheel/pulley out of 25mm plate as i couldnt get a pulley heavy enough

i,am hoping eventually when i get the gearing rite to fit a single cylinder donky engine but at the moment its got a chin chong nicky noname wont last 5 mins on it that i got with it from ebay key start etc so want to see how it goes on the slower torque gearing etc it also keeps my mind busy etc to stop me thinking bad thoughts as i,ve had it rough over christmas just me and the dog etc etc
