Haven’t used the little Drummond in anger for a while but one thing that’s been annoying me is it vibrates a lot when it’s running due to how I’ve had it mounted.
Spent a bit of time beefing up the stand today which has sorted the wobbling out but as it is now sitting higher the belt was a bit slack.
I made up a spring-loaded tensioner which works a treat other than I now need to replace the makeshift roller I cobbled together to check it worked in principle with a proper one as it’s ridiculously noisy and gets a bit warm.
I need to source or make a roller 90mm wide and approx 50-75mm diameter..
Has anyone got anything lying around that might work or have any suggestions for one I could adapt or cut to size?
