Re: Scratchbuilding pulleys?

Thanks MPWR for the tip. I was looking at the punches that Micromark sells but their $40.00. I may go to hobbylobby at lunch to see about those mythical hole punches also!

I did have some luck with layering thin slices of aluminum tubing, looks nearly like a machined piece. Adding some PE pulley faces and they look outstanding. I'll try to get some pics up later tonight. A lathe is looking more and more attractive...
