Clausing drill press

[raddksn]

As long as the reeves drive isn't f'ed, yes. Otherwise it becomes a project and then some.

But still?!?!

So likely they're not even for this belt sander.

Are they even for the Clausing? The pulleys that are on it now are a lot bigger.

Take a pic of the pulleys on the Clausing for good measure, they don't go to the sander. I'm thinking the guy may have had a lathe or something else that they went to and just stored them there.

Reasonably sure they don't go on the Clausing either, there are no broached key ways.

That's what was throwing me off to begin with. You can see where a belt has been wearing on them so they were used on something but what, I dunno....

Well, I guess it's a mystery?

BTW, the belt I need is 6x48, correct?

 

[nine4gmc]

Yes mystery and yes 6x48.

Scratch that part number request, that looks like the older base plate that's smaller than mine. I think mine is roughly 8x16, that one looks like the smaller base that I have a top plate for. Could you post a rough dimension of the sander base when you get time?

I have a similar base off of an old bandsaw as shown below, but that top plate is 6"x16". If you need a part number, let me know.

Thanks Tool_scrounge but I think I have that style top plate. I'm just waiting to find the band saw that goes on it.

Band saw top plate:

I also have this belt sander top plate for the small base sander:

I'm looking for the top plate for this sander so I can throw the wood **** away.:
