Hi gents, I damage my motor pulley for my mumford super 7. I did not realise that the set screw loosen overtime with vibrations until the motor spindle "chewed" the aluminum motor pulley's bore. its still usable but I think it won't last long enough. I tried Myford but its not currently available according to their website. Ebay can be very expensive especially if someone bids a ridiculous price for it. Is there any store that offers a motor pulley with the similar specs? Appreciate the help guys.

Cheers,

Raph

Much appreciated gents, a very good member offered his solutions and hopefully I will have a replacement soon. I appreciate the help and knowledge that I get in the forum and this community.

Hopper, Thanks. I have no idea with regards to pulley sections. Does the Super 7 have a Z-profile pulley? My other solution is to get a generic Z-profile 3 step pulley then machine it into 2 pulley but a very good member message me and is willing to help me. Can you explain further the pulley section? Thanks!

Roy, the key was intact, it so happened that the set screw loosened and the key came totally loose and dropped on the belt guard cover. At this point i noticed something is wrong and since my belt is still tight the lathe keeps working until it came so loose. This is when I checked but its to late, My mistake and lessoned learned. I always do a pre check before starting up and this includes oil checks and belt checks etc. but things do happen. If only I knew.

Kwil, its still functioning but like a badly wounded soldier. I'm now just careful not to strain it to much. I have mentioned trying to convert a 3 step pulley to 2 step pulley to make things work but likely a very kind member here offered help which I cannot refuse. Thanks everyone!
