Hi Gene,
Got the memo but other needs have taken precedence.. such as bringing 
home the bacon etc.
Ya know... not everyone has the "luxury" of retirement yet..   ;-)

Seriously, I thought that your lathe was broke and you needed the belt 
and pulleys to fix it!
That would create a catch-22 situation if you had to machine the pulleys 
for the machine you needed to repair...   although perhaps a crank could 
be fitted..  ;-)

Dave
