How do I find the diameter of a pulley on a drive motor for a band saw?

In summary, to find the diameter of a pulley on a drive motor for a band saw, you will need to measure the distance between the center of the motor shaft and the center of the pulley, and then divide that number by two. This will give you the radius of the pulley, which can then be multiplied by two to get the diameter. Alternatively, you can refer to the manufacturer's specifications or consult a professional for assistance in determining the diameter of the pulley.
