Ealrgo, I came across this video while having my morning coffee. This fella built his own wheel balancer system. Here is the first of the 3 part video.

Don't know if you have or use a wheel balancer but this one looks pretty straight forward to build.

Delta Milwaukee "Toolmaker" v-belt pulley sizes?
Re: Delta Milwaukee "Toolmaker" v-belt pulley sizes?
I finally got the opportunity to watch the Suburban guy do the wheel balancing and trueing thing. He is working with a surface grinder and we have T&C grinders, so don't over think it. I primarily use Norton SG wheels, they are pricey but last quite a bit longer between dressing. Their number is 5SG60-KVS.
I made a dressing post and bought a diamond to use in it. I do not have a magnetic chuck but do have a really good 3 axis Yuasa vise.
Just do it and don't worry about too much, you won't destroy the machine or wheels if you are reasonably careful.

How goes the Delta Toolmaker rebuild. Haven't heard about it lately. Most likely life is getting in the way.
Keep us posted.
