The toothed bar to make the pulley's, and the belts, have arrived, I am waiting for the bearings and oil seals,

While waiting for the bearings to arrive I have made a start on the plate that provides the space for the belts to run in. because this requires space to bore
through the plate I have used the casing as a spacer. So set up the rotary table put on the jig, then the bulkhead, and the case, and finally the spacer blank.
With fingers firmly crossed centred the work. ZERO on the co ax could hardly believe my eyes, Hang on maybe i have just centred the last plate and the
RT is off a mile, SO turn the RT round ZERO movement. Now I know why I made the Jig's.
I am now on the process of boring out the space for the lower pulley's. by the time I have finished not a lot of this plate will remain.

After drilling the holes the ways for the belts are milled these are tapered to match the belt.
It was not possible to cut all the way through without damaging the casing so the plate was flipped over to join up the slots.
This is how it looks so far more work to do.
