This is a good post. I have one grinder set up with a belt drive and the other is direct. I thought I liked the belt better. would Ed or anyone care to elaborate on any advantages of the direct motor to drive pulley? There are a few advantages to larger control knobs, rear spring tension, and other little tweaks but I interested in the "belt v direct drive" issue. I also mount the grinder base on a piece of rubber matting and bolt it down really tight. In my own mind, I think it helps dampen vibration.

I appreciate the effort to share and the willingness to teach on this forum. Thanx, LP
