modified Ertl waterloo boy "SOLD"
« on: December 30, 2023, 07:52:12 pm »
modified Ertl waterloo boy. I reamed the axle bore up to 3/16" bore, replaced the axle, reamed both flywheels and added 1 set screw per flywheel. added an oiler on both stanchions. I tapered the drive pulley and added a knurled groove for round belts. It runs very true and smooth now.
I just enjoy converting these. I priced them on Ebay and they sell for more with no work done to them. price is $50 (inc shipping to US) just pm me if interested please. I will inc. a Poly belt to drive it with & (2) wheel chocks.
