I wish you would share larger images

And again a beautiful work which shows that accurate work and details pay off! -

Yes. There should be a sort of fork with a long wooden handle to shift the belt back and forth between fast and loose pulleys. I have yet to find dimensioned drawings or even really good photos of the belt shifter.
Dave — it's not a dimensioned drawing or even a photo, but at 2:45 in the video linked above there's a good shot of the belt shifter you describe shifting between the two pulleys. (and again at around 4:00 showing the shift of power to the bandsaw)
Maybe you could contact them for good stills of the mechanism(s)? (Perhaps they also have drawings?)
Just a thought.

Thanks Doug. I'll look.
Hornoxx and Rich, if you click on the last two images you should see the full size version of them. And thank you!
-
Another very fine piece. Cracking result.
-
Always great work!
-
Very nice work Dave
there is something particularly appealing to me about that model. -
-
Thank you gentlemen.
-
Here's a detail showing some of the screw threads. Added some color in the render.
-
The detail in your mechanical models just slays me
-
Thank you sir. Maybe it makes up for my lack of skill with rendering that you have.
-
The best renders are the ones that convey the right amount of details.
This is one of those renders where you appreciate the accuracy and level of modelling involved.
Not one where errors are disguised using texture maps etc
Cannot wait for you to animate it

Dave your rendering skills are more than “just fine”. We just generally do different types of modeling….. my craziness just allows for weirder results

Thank you Rich and Charles.
Rich, I expect I'll need to build out the shop more before I try to animate it.
-
Top notch details and illustration!
-
Thank you Bryan.
Not sure where I'll add this but I was doodling some more.
-
Spline gears! Nice!
-
This is getting better and better. I was going to say, when is the animation coming but Rich beat me to it.

Thank you.
I got a little sidetracked.
Front axle I-beam from around 1905.
And a wheel for a rail car from around 1895.
