Hi All,

I have a small ally pulley with a 12mm bore that needs enlarging to for a 16mm shaft. Is there anyone local to me (Derby) that could help me with this please?

I have a S7 which is in the middle of being fixed, so I can't do it myself

Many Thanks

Dave

Those die cast pulleys are pretty cheap. You might consider buying one with the correct bore. How much is your or your soon to be friend's time worth?

Many thanks to the people that offered their services

BrianH provided a sterling service this morning along with tea and toilet usage! Thoroughly enjoyed my visit – great to meet such a nice guy and his equally pleasant wife. A credit to the forum

Hi John,

2 reasons really:

i Not a diecast pully

ii Not available with a 16mm bore

Dave T – yes, I think you were well advised. You now have a local contact whom you might be able to help in return, and you have avoided a long delay in the post (over Xmas, remember) in which stuff gets lost, and if it arrives, is the wrong size, the wrong width, or the wrong keyway.

Didn't we all join this forum as a mutual aid system, not a 'order another and hope' system?

Cheers, and enjoy a festive yule.
