I seem to remember Sparey remarking that he could not understand why the Jarno taper was not more widely used, since it made a lot more sense..

To me, the Jarno tape , having a constant angle across all sizes, seemed the obvious one on which to stadardise.

However, Morse which varies in angle as the size varies, won the day (Rather as VHS did over Betamax! )

Try Canvey Railway and Model Engineering Club. You can spit from Leigh to Canvey (against the wind)

I am not a member but hear good reports.

If I am to make maximum use of the lathe I would like to add a 3 sheave pulley on the motor. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find one to fit so would appreciate any advice you might have. The pulley needs to preferably be unbored, with outside diameters of approach. 45mm, 65mm and 85mm, to suit a 6mm y section belt.

 

many thanks

I would try and find one with the right sizes and a smaller bore,

even a scrap drill press for a tenner would do it (there are 2 or 3 pulleys in the top section)

With a bigger bore you can put an insert into it
