I'm new to this site so excuse me if I'm posting in the wrong area.
We are having a discussion about motor, idler pully (yes wheel) ratios and we can't agree on this problem.
What we have is basically an old record player, The motor shaft is turning a single idler, and this idler is also turning the platten (the part the record sits on). The disagreement is. Will an idler of a different diameter change the platten speed? Some say yes, some say no. We need an expert that can explain the answer so us average minds can understand. Thanks Terry
