Teres motor/platter question

Hi all

Does anyone know if the Teres signature motor will work with a larger diameter platter?

I'm thinking of machining a 14" diameter platter to take advantage of the flywheel effect.

If not is it just a matter of measuring the pulley diameter with a micrometer and setting up a ratio of the old platter to old pulley vs. new platter/new pulley?

I already tried writing to Chris/Teres...

Thanks for your input!
 
The little DC motor does not like much side load, wore the bushing out in a few years. Maybe built the 3 phase motor with controller on this site. Then you can lose the strobe disc etc. Also if you can machine might try building a ldler wheel set up on a nice size motor pod. Then you can run idler or belt/tape.

Enjoy the ride
Tom
