Does anyone who owns a Diamond Ball cleaner know the RPM or can look at the motor to see the RPM. Thanks

I ask so I can find a motor tge same rpm and then just buy the pulley, belt and save $500..lolIt is not just the RPM rating of the motor that will decide the actual RPM the balls spin at.
You have to know the ratios of the belt pulley of the motor and the belt pulley of the table in the polisher the balls sit on. It is not one to one.
If I had to guess, the balls are spinning at around 800 RPM, give or take. Too fast and they may launch. The motor is probably around 1700 RPM.
Yeah, that is what I figured.I ask so I can find a motor tge same rpm and then just buy the pulley, belt and save $500..lol

Good luck with that, you clearly have no idea how the Diamond ball polisher works, or its designI ask so I can find a motor tge same rpm and then just buy the pulley, belt and save $500..lol

They sell the replacement parts so will just buy the belt and pulleysYeah, that is what I figured.
You have to know three things.
The motor RPM. Size of belt pulley on motor. Size of belt pulley under ball tray.
Good luck with your build.
You can see in many videos exactly how it works. For anyone who is mechanically inclined they can make it for way less.Good luck with that, you clearly have no idea how the Diamond ball polisher works, or its design
Make sure you document your build here on AZB, with videos.They sell the replacement parts so will just buy the belt and pulleys

Oh really, and what makes you such an expert on cutting the costs of building it? And no, you can't by the belt, pulleys, and motor from Diamond, sorryYou can see in many videos exactly how it works. For anyone who is mechanically inclined they can make it for way less.

So you say you can't buy parts???Oh really, and what makes you such an expert on cutting the costs of building it? And no, you can't by the belt, pulleys, and motor from Diamond, sorry
You didn't add in the cost of the 4 pillow block bearings, but thats probably because you didn't know about them because you can't see them in any videosYou can see in many videos exactly how it works. For anyone who is mechanically inclined they can make it for way less.

Where's the pulleys and motor for sale? The belts can be bought anywhere, but no one has ever had the need to replace them.So you say you can't buy parts???View attachment 618719View attachment 618720View attachment 618721

Dude I know how to make a motor and pulley work...lmfao. you think you are some genius and that I don't know anything. You can get parts cheap if you look but guess you pay top dollar on everything..lol.You didn't add in the cost of the 4 pillow block bearings, but thats probably because you didn't know about them because you can't see them in any videos
You can get 1/100 all the way to 1/2hp motors online everywhere for $50-150. You can also get any mm pulley you want online as well. Are you that sheltered you don't know that these thinks are everywhere?Where's the pulleys and motor for sale? The belts can be bought anywhere, but no one has ever had the need to replace them.
I guess you're not aware of the fact that I'm the one who invented the Diamond ball polisher back in 1995,You can see in many videos exactly how it works. For anyone who is mechanically inclined they can make it for way less.

Now say something stupidYou can get 1/100 all the way to 1/2hp motors online everywhere for $50-150. You can also get any mm pulley you want online as well. Are you that sheltered you don't know that these thinks are everywhere?

So then you know as good as me you can buy any pulley diameter, belt size, pillow blocks, and motor size you want. You are just commenting trying to discourage people from making their own. You make it sound like it's some NASA machine that nobody can find parts for itI guess you're not aware of the fact that I'm the one who invented the Diamond ball polisher back in 1995,
Ya he seems like one of those guys that thinks people are stupid and he's the only person who can invent something.Just buy the friggin’ Diamond ball polisher like most of us did. You won’t replicate it perfectly. The money will be long forgotten while you play with pristine ball sets.
Oh, and don't argue with RKC. He will wear you out and you won’t win.
