V-Belt Pulley Dimensions

January 21, 2019 By: Mark Plukas (Franklin, United States)

Comments
Great Compendium of useful daily information

Pros
Concise, clear, pretty complete.

Cons
I was hoping there would be a v-belt pulley dimensions guide. I see the general info but nothing about the dimensions needed for various pulley geometries. Perhaps not something needed on a daily basis and therefore omitted.
 

Excellent quality material, lads

Keen amateur

January 6, 2019 By: Gerard O'Neill (Sunbury, Australia)

Comments
The Black Book has answered many queries I've had around drills, drill sizes, taps and tapping. The section on steel hardening and tempering has helped a lot on my knife making. Ive also enjoyed the ready reference to common Trigonometry formulae, many of which Ive forgotten. Overall it has a wealth of information for any aspiring or practicing Ingeniator!

Pros
sits flat on the bench, durable finish on the pages, well referenced and comprehensive.

Cons
small size means writing is small and I need good light for these 60 yr old eyes to see well. A5 size would still work well and allow for larger font size. Either that or stronger glasses!!
 

Great book
